具体实施方式
为了更清楚地说明本申请的实施例的技术方案,下面将对实施例描述中所需要使用的附图作简单的介绍。显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本申请的一些示例或实施例,对于本领域的普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图将本申请应用于其他类似情景。除非从语言环境中显而易见或另做说明,图中相同标号代表相同结构或操作。
如本申请和权利要求书中所示,除非上下文明确提示例外情形,“一”、“一个”、
“一种”和/或“该”等词并非特指单数,也可包括复数。一般说来,术语“包括”与“包含”仅提示包括已明确标识的步骤和元素,而这些步骤和元素不构成一个排它性的罗列,方法或者设备也可能包含其他的步骤或元素。
应当理解,本文使用的术语“数据块”、“系统”、“引擎”、“单元”、“组件”、“模块”和/或“块”是用以区分不同级别的不同组件、元件、部件、部分或组件的一种方法。然而,如果其他词语可以实现相同的目的,则可通过其他表达来替换所述词语。
使用各种术语描述元素之间(例如,层之间)的空间和功能关系,包括“连接”、“接合”、“接口”和“耦合”。除非明确描述为“直接”,否则在本申请中描述第一和第二元素之 间的关系时,该关系包括在第一和第二元素之间不存在其他中间元素的直接关系,以及在第一和第二元素之间存在(空间或功能上)一个或以上中间元素的间接关系。相反,当元件被称为“直接”连接、接合、接口或耦合到另一元件时,不存在中间元件。另外,可以以各种方式实现元件之间的空间和功能关系。例如,两个元件之间的机械连接可包括焊接连接、键连接、销连接、过盈配合连接等,或其任何组合。用于描述元素之间关系的其他词语应以类似的方式解释(例如,“之间”、“与......之间”、“相邻”与“直接相邻”等)。
本申请提供了一种具有较好防漏音能力的开放双耳式耳机。在用户佩戴所述开放双耳式耳机时,所述开放双耳式耳机位于用户头部至少一侧,靠近但不堵塞用户耳道。所述开放双耳式耳机可以包括声学输出装置。该声学输出装置包括至少两组声学驱动器:一组高频声学驱动器和一组低频声学驱动器。每组声学驱动器可以用来产生具有一定频率范围的声音,并通过至少两个与其声学耦合的导声孔向外传播所述声音。通过对音频信号进行分频(例如,分解为高频信号和低频信号),并针对不同频段的分频信号,设置不同的导声孔间距(例如,与低频声学驱动器对应的两个导声孔之间的距离可以设置为大于与高频声学驱动器对应的至少两个导声孔之间的距离),可以提高所述开放双耳式耳机的降漏音能力。
在一些实施例中,所述声学输出装置上可以设有挡板结构,使得所述至少两个导声孔分别分布于挡板的两侧。在一些实施例中,所述至少两个导声孔可以分布于用户耳廓的两侧,此时耳廓作为挡板,可以隔开所述至少两个导声孔,使得从所述至少两个导声孔传出的声音到用户耳道的传播路径不同。通过设置挡板使从不同导声孔传出的声音到用户耳道的传播路径不同,可以提高所述开放双耳式耳机的降漏音能力。
图1是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源的示意图。为了进一步说明声学输出装置上导声孔的设置对声学输出装置声音输出效果的影响,且考虑到声音可以被看作是从导声孔处向外传播,本申请中可以将声学输出装置上的导声孔看作对外输出声音的声源进行描述。
仅仅为了方便描述和出于说明的目的,当声学输出装置上的导声孔尺寸较小时,每个导声孔可以近似视为一个点声源。在一些实施例中,开设在声学输出装置上的任一用于输出声音的导声孔,都可被近似成该声学输出装置上的一个单点声源。单点声源产生的声场声压p满足公式(1):
Figure PCTCN2020070539-appb-000001
其中,ω为角频率,ρ 0为空气密度,r为目标点与声源的距离,Q 0为声源体积速度,k为波数。可以看出点声源的声场声压的大小与到点声源的距离呈反比。
需要说明的是,本申请中将输出声音的导声孔作为点声源仅作为原理和效果的说明,并不限制实际应用中导声孔的形状和大小。在一些实施例中,当导声孔的面积较大时,还可以等效成以面声源的形式向外辐射声音。在一些实施例中,点声源亦可由其他结构实现,如振动面、声辐射面等。对于本领域中的技术人员,在不付出创造性活动的情况下,可以获知导声孔、振动面、声辐射面等结构产生的声音在本申请所论述的空间尺度下均可等效成点声源,有一致的声音传播特性及相同的数学描述方式。进一步地,对于本领域中的技术人员,在不付出创造性活动的情况下,可以获知本申请中所述的“声学驱动器从至少两个第一导声孔输出声音”实现的声学效果亦可由上述其他声学结构实现相同的效果,例如“至少两个声学驱动器分别从至少一个声辐射面输出声音”。还可以根据实际情况,选择其他声学结构进行合理调整与组合,亦可实现相同的声学输出效果,上述以面声源等结构向外辐射声音的原理与上述点声源类似,在此不再赘述。如上文所述,本说明书提供的声学输出装置上可以开设至少两个与同一声学驱动器对应的导声孔,以构造双点声源来减小声学输出装置向周围环境辐射的声音。为方便起见,声学输出装置向周围环境辐射的声音,由于可能会被环境中的其他人听到,故可以称为远场漏音。声学输出装置辐射 到佩戴该装置的用户耳朵的声音,由于距离该用户的距离较近,因此也可以称为近场听音。在一些实施例中,两个导声孔(即,双点声源)输出的声音具有一定的相位差。当双点声源之间的位置、相位差等满足一定条件时,可以使得声学输出装置在近场(例如,用户耳朵的听音位置)和远场表现出不同的声音效果。例如,当两个导声孔对应的点声源的相位相反,即两个点声源之间的相位差的绝对值为180度时,根据声波反相相消的原理,可实现远场漏音的削减。更多关于调节各点声源的幅值和/或相位来增强声学输出装置的描述请参见2019年12月31日递交的PCT申请PCT/CN2019/130884,其全部内容通过引用的方式添加在本申请中。
如图1所示,双点声源产生的声场声压p满足如下公式:
Figure PCTCN2020070539-appb-000002
其中,A 1、A 2分别为两个点声源的强度,φ 1、φ 2分别为两个点声源的相位,d为两个点声源之间的间距,r 1与r 2满足公式(3):
Figure PCTCN2020070539-appb-000003
其中,r为空间中任一目标点与双点声源中心位置的距离,θ表示该目标点与双点声源中心的连线与双点声源所在直线的夹角。
通过公式(3)可知,声场中目标点的声压p的大小与各点声源的强度、点声源之间的间距d、相位以及与声源的距离有关。
通过不同的导声孔设置可以构造具有不同输出效果的双点声源,使得声学输出装置能够提高近场听音的音量,同时减少远场的漏音。例如,声学驱动器可以包括一个振膜。当振膜振动时,声音可以分别从该振膜的前侧和后侧发出。声学输出装置中振膜前侧的位置设有用于传递声音的前室。前室与一个导声孔声学耦合,振膜前侧的声音可以通过前室传递到该导声孔并进一步向外传播。声学输出装置中振膜后侧的位置设有用于传递声音的后室。后室与另一个导声孔声学耦合,振膜后侧的声音可以通过后室传递到该导声孔并进一步向外传播。需要知道的是,当振膜在振动时,振膜前侧和后侧可以分别产生一组相位相反的声音。在一些实施例中,可以通过设置前室和后室的结构,使得声学驱动器在不同导声孔处输出的声音满足特定的条件。例如,可以设计前室和后室的长度,使得两个导声孔处可以输出一组具有特定相位关系(例如,相位相反)的声音,使得声学输出装置近场的听音音量较小以及远场的漏音问题均得到有效改善。
在一定条件下,相对于单点声源的远场漏音量,双点声源产生的远场漏音会随频率的增加而增加,也就是说,双点声源在远场的降漏音能力随频率的增加而减弱。为更清楚的描述,将结合图2描述远场漏音随频率变化的曲线。
图2是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源和单点声源的漏音随频率变化的曲线图。图2中所对应的双点声源间距固定,且两个点声源的幅值相同、相位相反。其中,虚线表示单点声源漏音量在不同频率下的变化曲线,实线表示双点声源漏音量在不同频率下的变化曲线。横坐标表示声音的频率(f),单位为赫兹(Hz),纵坐标采用归一化参数α作为评价漏音量的指标,α的计算公式如下:
Figure PCTCN2020070539-appb-000004
其中,P far表示声学输出装置在远场的声音声压(即,远场漏音声压),P ear表示佩戴者耳朵周围的声压(即,近场听音声压)。α值越大,则表示远场漏音相对于近场听音更大,即说明声学输出装 置的远场降漏音能力越差。在一些实施例中,可以根据图2所示的双点声源与单点声源的漏音随频率变化的特性,来提高本申请其他地方所描述的开放双耳式耳机(如图38所示的开放双耳式耳机3800和/或图43所示的开放双耳式耳机4300)的降漏音能力。
如图2所示,当频率在6000Hz以下时,双点声源产生的远场漏音小于单点声源产生的远场漏音,且随频率的增加而增加;当频率接近10000Hz时(例如,在约8000Hz以上),双点声源产生的远场漏音大于单点声源产生的远场漏音。在一些实施例中,可以根据上述内容,将双点声源与单点声源随频率变化曲线的交点处的频率作为双点声源能够降漏音的上限频率。
仅仅作为说明的目的,当频率较小(例如,在100Hz–1000Hz范围内)时,双点声源的降漏音能力(即α值较小)较强(-80dB以下),所以在该频段可以以增加听音音量为优化目标;当频率较大(例如,在1000Hz-8000Hz范围内)时,双点声源的降漏音能力较弱(-80dB以上),所以在该频段可以以减小漏音为优化目标。
结合图2,可以通过双点声源降漏音能力的变化趋势,确定频率的分频点,并根据该分频点调节双点声源的参数,以提高声学输出装置的降漏音效果。例如,可以将α值在特定数值(例如,-60dB,-70dB,-80dB,-90dB等)处对应的频率作为分频点。通过设立分频点以下的频率段以提高近场听音为主要目标,而分频点以上的频率段以降低远场漏音为主要目标来确定双点声源的参数。在一些实施例中,基于分频点可以确定声音频率较高(例如,高频声学驱动器输出的声音)的高频段与声音频率较低(例如,低频声学驱动器输出的声音)的低频段。关于分频点的更多内容可以参见本说明书其他地方(如图4及其相关描述)。
在一些实施例中,漏音的测量和计算方式可以根据实际情况进行合理调整。例如,可以取以双点声源中心为圆心,半径为r(例如,40cm)的球面上多个点的声压幅值的平均值作为漏音的值。其中,近场听音位置与点声源之间的距离远小于点声源与远场漏音测量球面的距离。可选地,近场听音位置到双点声源中心之间的距离与半径r之比小于0.3,0.2,0.15,或者0.1。又例如,可以取远场位置的一个点或一个以上的点作为测量漏音的位置,并以该位置的音量作为漏音的值。再例如,可以以双点声源中心为圆心,在远场处根据一定的空间角均匀地取两个或两个以上的点的声压幅值进行平均,作为漏音的值。这些测量和计算方式都可以被本领域的技术人员根据实际情况进行调整,在此不作限制。
通过图2可知,在高频段(根据分频点确定的较高频段)双点声源的降漏音能力较弱,在低频段(根据分频点确定的较低频段)双点声源的降漏音能力较强。而在一定声音频率下,双点声源的间距不同,其产生的降漏音能力不同,听音音量与漏音音量的差别也不同。为更清楚的描述,将结合图3A和3B描述远场漏音随双点声源间距变化的曲线。
图3A和3B是根据本申请一些实施例所示的近场听音音量和远场漏音音量随着双点声源间距变化的示例性曲线图。其中,图3B是对图3A进行归一化后的曲线图。
图3A中,实线表示双点声源的听音音量随双点声源间距变化的曲线,虚线表示双点声源的漏音音量随双点声源间距变化的曲线,横坐标表示双点声源的两个点声源之间的间距d与参考间距d0的间距比d/d0,纵坐标表示声音的音量(单位为分贝dB)。间距比d/d0可以反映双点声源两个点声源之间间距的变化情况。在一些实施例中,参考间距d0可以在特定范围内选取。例如,d0可以是在2.5mm-10mm范围取的特定值,例如d0可以是5mm。在一些实施例中,参考间距d0可以基于听音位置确定。例如,可以取听音位置到最近点声源的距离值为参考间距d0。需要知道的是,参考间距d0可以根据实际场景灵活选取其他任意合适的值,在此不做限定。仅仅作为示例,图3A中取d0等于5mm作为双点声源间距变化的参考值。
在声音频率一定的情况下,随着双点声源之间间距的增加,双点声源的听音音量和漏音音量均增加。当双点声源间距d与参考间距d0的比值d/d0小于比值阈值时,随着双点声源间距的增大,其听音音量的增量较漏音音量的增量大,即听音音量的增加较漏音音量的增加更显著。例如,图3A中所示,双点声源间距d与参考间距d0的比值d/d0为2时,听音音量与漏音音量的 差值约为20dB;比值d/d0为4时,听音音量与漏音音量的差值约为25dB。在一些实施例中,当双点声源间距d与参考间距d0的比值d/d0达到比值阈值时,双点声源的听音音量与漏音音量的比达到最大值。此时,随着双点声源间距的进一步增大,听音音量的曲线与漏音音量的曲线逐渐趋于平行,即听音音量的增量与漏音音量的增量保持相同。例如,如图3B中所示,双点声源间距比值d/d0为5、或6、或7时,双点声源听音音量与漏音音量的差值保持一致,均约为25dB,即听音音量的增量与漏音音量的增量相同。在一些实施例中,双点声源间距的间距比d/d0的比值阈值可以在0-7的范围内。例如,d/d0的比值阈值可以设置在0.5-4.5的范围内。又例如,d/d0的比值阈值可以设置在1-4的范围内。
在一些实施例中,可以基于图3A双点声源听音音量与漏音音量的差值变化确定所述比值阈值。例如,可以将听音音量和漏音音量之间产生最大差值时对应的比值确定为比值阈值。如图3B所示,当间距比d/d0小于比值阈值(如,4)时,随着双点声源间距的增加,归一化的听音曲线呈上升趋势(曲线斜率大于0),即听音音量的增量大于漏音音量增量;当间距比d/d0大于比值阈值时,随着双点声源间距的增加,归一化的听音曲线的曲线斜率逐渐趋近于0,与归一化的漏音曲线平行,即随着双点声源间距的增加,听音音量增量不再大于漏音音量增量。
通过上述内容可知,若听音位置固定,通过一定手段调节双点声源的参数,可以实现近场听音音量有显著增加而远场漏音音量仅略微增加的效果(即近场听音音量的增量大于远场漏音音量的增量)。例如,设置两组或两组以上双点声源(如一组高频双点声源和一组低频双点声源),通过一定手段分别调节每组双点声源的间距,使得高频双点声源之间的间距小于低频双点声源之间的间距。由于低频段双点声源漏音较小(降漏音能力较强),高频段双点声源漏音较大(降漏音能力较弱),高频段选择更小的双点声源间距,可以使听音音量显著大于漏音音量,从而降低漏音。
本说明书实施例中,每组声学驱动器所对应的两个导声孔之间具有一定的间距,该距离会影响所述声学输出装置传递给佩戴者耳朵的近场听音音量及向环境传播的远场漏音音量。在一些实施例中,当高频声学驱动器对应的导声孔之间的间距小于低频声学驱动器对应的导声孔之间的间距时,可以提高用户耳朵能听到的声音音量,并且产生较小漏音,避免声音被声学输出装置用户附近的他人听见。根据以上的描述,该声学输出装置即使处于较为安静环境中,也可有效地降低漏音,因此可以应用在开放双耳式耳机(例如,开放双耳式耳机3800和/或开放双耳式耳机4300)中。
图4是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声学输出装置的示例性结构框图。如图4所示,声学输出装置100可以包括电子分频模块110、声学驱动器140和声学驱动器150、声学路径145、声学路径155、至少两个第一导声孔147以及至少两个第二导声孔157。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置100还包括控制器(图中未示出),电子分频模块110作为控制器的一部分,用于生成输入到不同声学驱动器中的电信号。声学输出装置100中不同组件之间的连接可以是有线连接或无线连接。例如,电子分频模块110可以通过有线传输或者无线传输的方式向声学驱动器140和/或声学驱动器150发送信号。
电子分频模块110可以对音源信号进行分频处理。所述音源信号可以来自于一个或多个集成在声学输出装置100内的音源装置(例如,一个存储音频数据的存储器),也可以是声学输出装置100通过有线或者无线的方式接收的音频信号。在一些实施例中,电子分频模块110可以将输入的音源信号分解成两个或两个以上包含不同频率成分的分频信号。例如,电子分频模块110可以将音源信号分解成带有高频声音成分的第一分频信号(或分频信号1)和带有低频声音成分的第二分频信号(或分频信号2)。为方便起见,带有高频声音成分的分频信号可以直接被称为高频信号,带有低频声音成分的分频信号可以直接被称为低频信号。
仅仅为了描述的目的,本申请实施例所述的低频信号是指频率在较低的第一频率范围内的声音信号,而高频信号是指频率在较高的第二频率范围内的声音信号。所述第一频率范围和第 二频率范围可以包含或不包含重叠的频率范围,且第二频率范围中包括高于所述第一频率范围的频率。仅作为示例,第一频率范围可以是指低于第一频率阈值的频率,第二频率范围可以是指高于第二频率阈值的频率。所述第一频率阈值可以低于、等于或者高于第二频率阈值。例如,第一频率阈值可以小于第二频率阈值(例如,第一频率阈值可以是600Hz,第二频率阈值是700Hz),这说明第一频率范围和第二频率范围之间没有交叠。再例如,第一频率阈值可以等于第二频率(例如,第一频率阈值和第二频率阈值都是650Hz或者其他任意频率值)。再例如,第一频率阈值可以大于第二频率阈值,这说明第一频率范围和第二频率范围之间存在交叠。在这种情况下,第一频率阈值和第二频率阈值的差值可以不超过第三频率阈值。所述第三频率阈值可以是固定的值,例如,20Hz,50Hz,100Hz,150Hz,200Hz,也可以是与第一频率阈值和/或第二频率阈值有关的值(例如,第一频率阈值的5%,10%,15%等),或者是用户根据实际场景灵活设置的值,在此不做限定。需要知道的是,所述第一频率阈值和第二频率阈值可以根据不同的情况灵活设置,在此不做限定。
在一些实施例中,电子分频模块110可以包括分频器115、信号处理器120和130。分频器115可以用于将音源信号分解成两个或两个以上包含不同频率成分的分频信号,例如,带有高频声音成分的分频信号1和带有低频声音成分的分频信号2。在一些实施例中,分频器115可以是任意可以实现信号分解功能的电子器件,包括但不限于无源滤波器、有源滤波器、模拟滤波器、数字滤波器等中的一种或其任意组合。在一些实施例中,分频器115可以基于一个或多个分频点对音源信号进行分频。分频点是指区分第一频率范围和第二频率范围的信号频率。例如,当第一频率范围和第二频率范围之间存在交叠频率时,分频点可以是交叠频率范围内的特征点(例如,交叠频率范围的低频率边界点、高频率边界点、中心频率点等)。在一些实施例中,可以根据频率与声学输出装置的漏音之间的关系(例如,图2、图3A和3B所示的曲线)确定分频点。例如,考虑到声学输出装置的漏音会随频率的变化而变化,可以选取满足一定条件的漏音音量所对应的频率点作为分频点,例如,图2中所示的1000Hz。关于漏音音量随着频率变化的更多细节可以参见图2及其相关描述,在此不再赘述。在一些替代性实施例中,用户可以直接指定特定频率作为分频点。例如,考虑到人耳可以听到的声音频率范围是在20Hz–20kHz,用户可以选取该范围的频率点作为分频点,例如分频点可以是600Hz、800Hz、1000Hz、1200Hz等。在一些实施例中,可以根据声学驱动器的性能确定分频点。例如,考虑到上述低频声学驱动器和高频声学驱动器具有不同的频率响应曲线,可以选择在高于低频声学驱动器上限频率的1/2,且低于高频声学驱动器下限频率的2倍的频率范围内选择分频点。更优选地,可以选择在高于低频声学驱动器上限频率的1/3,且低于高频声学驱动器下限频率的1.5倍的频率范围内选择分频点。在一些实施例中,在交叠频率范围内,点声源之间的位置关系也会影响声学输出装置在近场和远场产生的音量,更多内容请参见2019年12月31日递交的PCT申请PCT/CN2019/130886,其全部内容通过引用的方式添加在本申请中。
信号处理器120和130可以分别对分频信号进行进一步处理,以满足后续声音输出的需求。在一些实施例中,信号处理器120或130可以包括一个或多个信号处理组件。例如,信号处理器可以包括但不限于放大器、调幅器、调相器、延时器、动态增益控制器等中的一种或其任意组合。仅仅作为示例,信号处理器120和/或130对声音信号进行的处理包括调整该声音信号中部分频率对应的幅值。具体地,在上述第一频率范围和第二频率范围存在交叠的情况下,信号处理器120和130可以分别调整交叠频率范围内对应的声音信号的强度(例如,减小交叠频率范围内信号的幅值),以避免后续输出的声音中由于多路声音信号的叠加而导致的交叠频率范围内的声音过大的后果。
信号处理器120或130对分频信号分别进行信号处理之后,可以分别将分频信号传输至声学驱动器140和150。在一些实施例中,传入声学驱动器140的声音信号可以为包含较低频率范围(例如,第一频率范围)的声音信号,因此声学驱动器140也可以称为低频声学驱动器。传入 声学驱动器150的声音信号可以为包含较高频率范围(例如,第二频率范围)的声音信号,因此声学驱动器150也可以称为高频声学驱动器。声学驱动器140和声学驱动器150可以分别将各自的声音信号转换成低频声音和高频声音,并向外界传播。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器140可以与至少两个第一导声孔(如两个第一导声孔147)声学耦合(例如,通过两条声学路径145分别与两个第一导声孔147连接),并从所述至少两个第一导声孔处将声音传播出去。声学驱动器150可以与至少两个第二导声孔(如两个第二导声孔157)声学耦合(例如,通过两条声学路径155分别与两个第二导声孔157连接),并从所述至少两个第二导声孔处将声音传播出去。所述导声孔可以是声学输出装置上形成的具有特定开口的且允许声音通过的小孔。导声孔的形状可以包括但不限于条形、圆形、椭圆形、方形、梯形、圆角四边形、三角形、不规则图形等中的一种或其任意组合。此外地,与声学驱动器140或150相连接的导声孔的数量不限于两个,可以为任意值,例如,3个、4个、6个等。
在一些实施例中,为了减小声学输出装置100的远场漏音,可以使得声学驱动器140分别在至少两个第一导声孔处产生幅值相等(或近似相等)、相位相反(或近似相反)的低频声音,以及使得声学驱动器150分别在至少两个第二导声孔处产生幅值相等(或近似相等)、相位相反(或近似相反)的高频声音。这样,基于声波干涉相消的原理,低频声音(或高频声音)的远场漏音会降低。根据上述图2、图3A和3B描述的内容,进一步考虑到低频声音的波长大于高频声音的波长,且为了减少声音在近场(例如,用户耳朵的听音位置)的干涉相消,可以分别将第一导声孔之间的距离和第二导声孔之间的距离设置成不同的值。例如,假设两个第一导声孔之间具有第一间距,两个第二导声孔之间具有第二间距,可以使得所述第一间距大于所述第二间距。在一些实施例中,第一间距和第二间距可以为任意值。仅作为示例,第一间距可以不大于40mm,例如,在20mm–40mm的范围内,第二间距可以不大于12mm,且第一间距大于第二间距。优选地,第一间距可以不小于12mm,第二间距可以不大于7mm,例如,在3mm–7mm的范围内。更优选地,第一间距可以是30mm,第二间距可以是5mm。再例如,第一间距可以至少是第二间距的2倍。优选地,第一间距可以至少是第二间距的3倍。优选地,第一间距可以至少是第二间距的5倍。
如图4所示,声学驱动器140可以包括换能器143。换能器143通过声学路径145将声音传递到第一导声孔147。声学驱动器150可以包括换能器153。换能器153通过声学路径155将声音传递到第二导声孔157。在一些实施例中,换能器可以包括但不限于气传导扬声器的换能器、骨传导扬声器的换能器、水声换能器、超声换能器等中的一种或其任意组合。在一些实施例中,换能器的工作原理可以包括但不限于动圈式、动铁式、压电式、静电式、磁致伸缩式等中的一种或其任意组合。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器(如低频声学驱动器140、高频声学驱动器150)可以包括具有不同性质或数量的换能器。例如,低频声学驱动器140和高频声学驱动器150可以分别包括一个具有不同频率响应特性的换能器(如低频扬声器单元和高频扬声器单元)。又例如,低频声学驱动器140可以包括两个换能器143(如两个低频扬声器单元),高频声学驱动器150可以包括两个换能器153(如两个高频扬声器单元)。
在一些可替代地实施例中,声学输出装置100可以通过其他方式生成具有不同频率范围的声音。例如,换能器分频、声学路径分频等。当声学输出装置100利用换能器或声学路径实现对声音的分频时,电子分频模块110结构(虚线框内部分)可以省略,音源信号可以分别输入声学驱动器140和声学驱动器150。
在一些可替代的实施例中,声学输出装置100利用换能器实现信号分频,声学驱动器140和声学驱动器150可以将输入的音源信号分别转换为低频信号和高频信号。具体地,低频声学驱动器140可以通过换能器143(如低频扬声器)将音源信号转换为带有低频成分的低频声音;低频声音可以沿至少两个不同的声学路径145传递到至少两个第一导声孔147,并通过第一导声孔147 向外界传播。高频声学驱动器150可以通过换能器153(如高频扬声器)将音源信号转换为带有高频成分的高频声音;高频声音可以沿至少两个不同的声学路径155传递到至少两个第二导声孔157,并通过第二导声孔157向外界传播。
在一些可替代的实施例中,连接换能器和导声孔的声学路径(如声学路径145和155)会影响所传递声音的性质。例如,声学路径会对所传递声音产生一定程度的衰减或者改变所传递声音的相位。在一些实施例中,声学路径可以由导声管、声腔、谐振腔、声孔、声狭缝、调音网等中的一种或其任意组合的结构所构成。在一些实施例中,声学路径中还可以包括声阻材料,所述声阻材料具有特定的声学阻抗。例如,声学阻抗的范围可以从5MKS瑞利到500MKS瑞利。声阻材料可以包括但不限于塑料、纺织品、金属、可渗透材料、编织材料、屏材料或网状材料、多孔材料、颗粒材料、高分子材料等,或其任意组合。通过设置具有不同声学阻抗的声学路径,可以对换能器输出的声音进行声学滤波,使得通过不同的声学路径输出的声音具有不同的频率成分。
在一些可替代的实施例中,声学输出装置100可以利用声学路径实现信号分频。具体地,音源信号输入特定声学驱动器中,转换为含有高低频成分的声音,该声音信号沿着具有不同频率选择特性的声学路径进行传播。例如,声音信号可以沿具有低通特性的声学路径传输至对应的导声孔后产生向外传播的低频声音,在这个过程中,高频声音被该具有低通特性的声学路径所吸收或衰减。同样地,声音信号可以沿具有高通特性的声学路径传输至对应的导声孔后产生向外传播的高频声音,在这个过程中,低频声音被该具有高通特性的声学路径所吸收或衰减。
在一些实施例中,声学输出装置100中的控制器可以使低频声学驱动器140输出在第一频率范围内的声音(即低频声音),并且使高频声学驱动器150输出在第二频率范围内的声音(即高频声音)。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置100还可以包括支撑结构。所述支撑结构可以用于承载声学驱动器(如高频声学驱动器150、低频声学驱动器140),使得声学驱动器被定位在离开用户耳朵的位置。在一些实施例中,与高频声学驱动器150声学耦合的导声孔可以更靠近用户耳部的预期位置(例如,耳道入口),而低频声学驱动器140声学耦合的导声孔则距离该预期位置更远。在一些实施例中,所述支撑结构可以用于封装声学驱动器。封装声学驱动器的支撑结构可以包括塑料、金属、布带等各种材料的壳体。所述壳体封装声学驱动器并形成对应声学驱动器的前室和后室,所述前室可以声学耦合到至少两个导声孔中的一个,所述后室可以声学耦合到至少两个导声孔中的另一个。例如,低频声学驱动器140的前室可以声学耦合到至少两个第一导声孔147中的一个,低频声学驱动器140的后室可以声学耦合到至少两个第一导声孔147中的另一个;高频声学驱动器150的前室可以声学耦合到至少两个第二导声孔157中的一个,高频声学驱动器150的后室可以声学耦合到至少两个第二导声孔157中的另一个。在一些实施例中,所述导声孔(如第一导声孔147、第二导声孔157)可以设置在所述壳体上。
以上对于声学输出装置100的描述仅作为示例性的说明,本领域的技术人员可以在理解其原理的情况下对声学驱动器的结构、数量等进行的调整和改变,本申请对此不做限制。在一些具体的实施例中,声学输出装置100可以包括任意数量的声学驱动器结构。例如,声学输出装置100可以包括两组高频声学驱动器150和两组低频声学驱动器140,或一组高频声学驱动150和两组低频声学驱动器140等,而且这些高频/低频驱动器可以分别用于生成特定频率范围的声音。再例如,声学驱动器140和/或声学驱动器150内部可以包括另外的信号处理器。该信号处理器可以与信号处理器120或130具有相同或不同的结构组件。
应当理解,图4所示的声学输出装置及其模块可以利用各种方式来实现。例如,在一些实施例中,系统及其模块可以通过硬件、软件或者软件和硬件的结合来实现。其中,硬件部分可以利用专用逻辑来实现;软件部分则可以存储在存储器中,由适当的指令执行系统,例如微处理器或者专用设计硬件来执行。本领域技术人员可以理解,上述的方法和系统可以使用计算机可执行指令和/或包含在处理器控制代码中来实现,例如在诸如磁盘、CD或DVD-ROM的载体介质、诸如只读存储器(固件)的可编程的存储器或者诸如光学或电子信号载体的数据载体上提供了这样的 代码。本申请的系统及其模块不仅可以有诸如超大规模集成电路或门阵列、诸如逻辑芯片、晶体管等的半导体、或者诸如现场可编程门阵列、可编程逻辑设备等的可编程硬件设备的硬件电路实现,也可以用例如由各种类型的处理器所执行的软件实现,还可以由上述硬件电路和软件的结合(例如,固件)来实现。
需要注意的是,以上对于声学输出装置100及其各组件的描述,仅为描述方便,并不能把本申请限制在所举实施例范围之内。可以理解,对于本领域的技术人员来说,在了解该装置的原理后,可能在不背离这一原理的情况下,对各个单元进行任意组合,或者构成子结构与其他单元连接。例如,电子分频模块110可以省略,音源信号的分频可以通过低频声学驱动器140和/或高频声学驱动器150的内部结构实现。又例如,信号处理器120或130可以为独立于电子分频模块110的一部分。诸如此类的变形,均在本申请的保护范围之内。
图5是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声学输出装置的示意图。出于说明的目的,将以同一换能器与不同导声孔耦合而形成向外传播的声音为例进行描述。在图5中,每个换能器具有前侧和后侧,在换能器的前侧或者后侧存在对应的前室(即第一声学路径)和后室(即第二声学路径)的结构。在一些实施例中,这些结构可以具有相同或者近似相同的等效声学阻抗,以使换能器被对称地负载。换能器的对称负载可以使得不同导声孔处形成满足幅值和相位关系的声源(如以上描述的幅值相等,相位相反的“双点声源”),从而在高频和/或低频范围内形成特定的辐射声场(例如,近场声音得到增强,而远场漏音得到抑制)。
如图5所示,声学驱动器(如声学驱动器140或150)可以包括换能器、以及与换能器相连接的声学路径和导声孔。为了更清楚地描述声学输出装置300的实际使用场景,图5中还示出了用户耳朵E的位置以作说明。其中,图5中左侧的图(a)主要示出声学驱动器140的应用场景。声学驱动器140包括换能器143,并通过声学路径145与两个第一导声孔147声学耦合。图3中右侧的图(b)主要示出声学驱动器150的应用场景。声学驱动器150包括换能器153,并通过声学路径155与两个第二导声孔157声学耦合。
换能器143或153可以在电信号的驱动下产生振动,且该振动会产生一组幅值相等、相位相反(180度反相)的声音。换能器类型可以包括但不限于气传导扬声器、骨传导扬声器、水声换能器、超声换能器等中的一种或其任意组合。换能器的工作原理可以包括但不限于动圈式、动铁式、压电式、静电式、磁致伸缩式等中的一种或其任意组合。优选地,换能器143或153可以包含振膜,该振膜在受到电信号的驱动而产生振动,振膜正面和背面可以同时输出正相声音和反相声音。图5中,利用“+”和“-”示例不同相位的声音,其中“+”代表正相声音,“-”代表反相声音。
在一些实施例中,换能器可以被支撑结构上的壳体封装,壳体内部可以分别设有连接到换能器的前侧和后侧的声音通道,从而形成声学路径。例如,换能器143的前腔通过第一声学路径(即,声学路径145的前半部分)耦合到两个第一导声孔147中的一个导声孔,换能器143的后腔通过第二声学路径(即,声学路径145的后半部分)声学耦合到两个第一导声孔147中的另一个导声孔。换能器143输出的正相声音和反相声音分别从两个第一导声孔147输出。又例如,换能器153的前腔通过第三声学路径(即,声学路径155的前半部分)耦合到两个第二导声孔157的其中一个导声孔,换能器153的后腔通过第四声学路径(即,声学路径155的后半部分)耦合到两个第二导声孔157的另一个导声孔。换能器153输出的正相声音和反相声音分别从两个第二导声孔157输出。
在一些实施例中,声学路径会影响所传递声音的性质。例如,声学路径会对所传递声音产生一定程度的衰减或者改变所传递声音的相位。在一些实施例中,声学路径可以由导声管、声腔、谐振腔、声孔、声狭缝、调音网等中的一种或其任意组合的结构所构成。在一些实施例中,声学路径中还可以包括声阻材料,所述声阻材料具有特定的声学阻抗。例如,声学阻抗的范围可以从5MKS瑞利到500MKS瑞利。在一些实施例中,声阻材料可以包括但不限于塑料、纺织品、金 属、可渗透材料、编织材料、屏材料以及网状材料等中的一种或其任意组合。在一些实施例中,为使得声学驱动器前室与后室传输的声音不被干扰(或由干扰产生的变化相同),可以将声学驱动器对应的前室和后室设置成具有近似相同的等效声学阻抗。例如,使用相同的声阻材料、设置相同大小或形状的导声孔等。
低频声学驱动器的两个第一导声孔147之间的间距可以表示为d1(即第一间距),高频声学驱动器的两个第二导声孔157之间的间距可以表示为d2(即第二间距)。通过设置低频声学驱动器和高频声学驱动器所对应的导声孔之间的距离,例如,使得两个第一导声孔147之间的间距大于两个第二导声孔157之间的间距(即,d1>d2),可实现在低频段有较高的音量输出,在高频段有更强的降漏音能力。
在一些实施例中,换能器143和换能器153共同容纳在声学输出装置的壳体内,并经由壳体内的结构隔绝放置。
在一些实施例中,声学输出装置300可以包括多组高频声学驱动器和低频声学驱动器。例如,声学输出装置可以包含一组高频声学驱动器和一组低频声学驱动器,同时用于对左耳和/或右耳输出声音。又例如,声学输出装置可以包含两组高频声学驱动器和两组低频声学驱动器,其中一组高频声学驱动器和一组低频声学驱动器用于对用户左耳输出声音,另一组高频声学驱动器和低频声学驱动器用于对用户右耳输出声音。
在一些实施例中,高频声学驱动器和低频声学驱动器可以被配置为具有不同的功率。在一些实施例中,低频声学驱动器可以被配置为具有第一功率,高频声学驱动器可以被配置为具有第二功率,且第一功率大于第二功率。在一些实施例中,第一功率和第二功率可以为任意值。
图6A和6B是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声音输出示意图。
在一些实施例中,声学输出装置可以通过两个或两个以上的换能器产生同一频率范围的声音,并通过不同的导声孔向外传播。在一些实施例中,不同换能器可以分别由相同或不同的控制器进行控制,并可以产生具有满足一定相位和幅值条件的声音(例如,振幅相同但相位相反的声音、振幅不同且相位相反的声音等)。例如,控制器可以使得输入到声学驱动器的两个低频换能器中的电信号具有相同的幅值和相反的相位,这样,当形成声音时,两个低频换能器可以输出幅值相同但相位相反的低频声音。
具体地,声学驱动器(如低频声学驱动器140、高频声学驱动器150)中的两个换能器可以并列设置在声学输出装置内,其中一个用于输出正相声音,另一个用于输出反相声音。如图6A所示,右侧的声学驱动器140可以包括两个换能器143、两条声学路径145和两个第一导声孔147,左侧的声学驱动器150可以包括两个换能器153、两条声学路径155和两个第二导声孔157。在相位相反的电信号驱动下,两个换能器143可以产生一组相位相反(180度反相)的低频声音。两个换能器143中的一个输出正相声音(如位于下方的换能器),另一个输出反相声音(如位于上方的换能器),两组相位相反的低频声音分别沿两条声学路径145传递至两个第一导声孔147,并通过两个第一导声孔147向外传播。类似地,在相位相反的电信号驱动下,两个换能器153可以产生一组相位相反(180度反相)的高频声音。两个换能器153中的其中一个输出正相高频声音(如位于下方的换能器),另一个输出反相高频声音(如位于上方的换能器),两组相位相反的高频声音分别沿两条声学路径155传递至两个第二导声孔157,并通过两个第二导声孔157向外传播。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器(如低频声学驱动器140、高频声学驱动器150)中两个换能器可以沿着同一直线相对紧邻设置,且其中一个用于输出正相声音,另一个用于输出反相声音。如图6B所示,左侧为声学驱动器140,右侧为声学驱动器150。声学驱动器140的两个换能器143分别在控制器控制下产生一组幅值相等、相位相反的低频声音。其中一个换能器输出正相的低频声音并沿第一声学路径传输至一个第一导声孔147,另一个换能器输出反相的低频声音并沿第二声学路径传输至另一个第一导声孔147。声学驱动器150的两个换能器153分别在控制器控制 下产生一组幅值相等、相位相反的高频声音。其中一个换能器输出正相高频声音并沿第三声学路径传输至一个第二导声孔157,另一个换能器输出反相的高频声音并沿第四声学路径传输至另一个第二导声孔157。
在一些实施例中,换能器143和/或换能器153可以是各种合适的类型。例如,换能器143和换能器153可以是动圈式扬声器,其具有低频灵敏度高、低频下潜深度大、失真小的特点。再例如,换能器143和换能器153可以是动铁式扬声器,其具有尺寸小、灵敏度高、高频范围大的特点。再例如,换能器143和换能器153可以是气导扬声器,或骨导扬声器。再例如,换能器143和换能器153可以为平衡电枢式扬声器。在一些实施例中,换能器143和换能器153可以是不同类型的换能器。例如,换能器143可以为动铁式扬声器,换能器153可以为动圈式扬声器。再例如,换能器143可以为动圈式扬声器,换能器153可以为动铁式扬声器。
图6A和6B中,声学驱动器140的双点声源间距为d1,声学驱动器150的双点声源间距为d2,且d1大于d2。如图6B所示,听音位置(即,用户佩戴声学输出装置时耳道的位置)可以位于一组双点声源的连线上。在一些替代性实施例中,听音位置可以为任意合适的位置。例如,听音位置可以位于以双点声源中心点为圆心的圆周上。再例如,听音位置可以位于两组双点声源连线的同一侧,或者位于两组双点声源连线的中间。
可以理解,图6A和6B中示出的声学输出装置的简化结构仅作为示例,并不是对本申请的限制。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置400和/或声学输出装置500可以包括支撑结构、控制器、信号处理器等一种或多种的组合结构。
图7A和7B是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声学输出装置的示意图。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器(如声学驱动器140或150)可以包括多组窄带扬声器。如图7A所示,声学输出装置可以包括多组窄带扬声器单元和信号处理模块。在用户左侧或右侧的位置,该声学输出装置分别包括n组,共2*n个窄带扬声器单元。每组窄带扬声器单元具有不同的频率响应曲线,各组的频率响应互补,且共同覆盖可听声音频段。这里所说的窄带扬声器可以是相对于上述低频声学驱动器和高频声学驱动器而言,具有更窄频率响应范围的声学驱动器。以图7A中所示的位于用户左侧的扬声器单元为例:A1~An分别与B1~Bn一起构成n组双点声源。当输入同一电信号时,每组双点声源分别产生具有不同频率范围的声音。通过设定每组双点声源的间隔dn来调控各频段的近场与远场的声音。例如,为了增强近场听音音量,减小远场漏音音量,可以使得较高频的双点声源间距小于较低频的双点声源间距。
在一些实施例中,信号处理模块可以包括均衡(Equalizer,EQ)处理模块和数字信号处理(DSP)模块。信号处理模块可以用于实现信号均衡以及其他通用的数字信号处理算法(如调幅、调相等)。处理后的信号可以通过与相应的声学驱动器(例如,窄带扬声器)结构相连输出声音。优选地,窄带扬声器可以为动圈式扬声器或动铁式扬声器。更优选地,窄带扬声器可以为平衡电枢式扬声器。可以使用两个平衡电枢式扬声器构造双点声源,且两个扬声器输出声音的相位相反。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器(如声学驱动器140或150)可以包括多组全频带扬声器。如图7B所示,声学输出装置可以包括多组全频带扬声器单元和信号处理模块。在用户左侧或右侧的位置,该声学输出装置分别包括n组,共2*n个全频带扬声器单元。每组全频带扬声器单元都具有相同或类似的频率响应曲线,且能覆盖较广的频率范围。
以图7B中所示的位于用户左侧的扬声器单元为例:A1~An分别与B1~Bn一起构成n个双点声源。与图7A不同的地方在于,图7B中的信号处理模块包含至少一组滤波器,用来对声源信号进行分频,再将对应不同频率范围的电信号分别输入到各组全频带扬声器。这样,每组扬声器单元(类似于上述双点声源),可以分别产生具有不同频率范围的声音。
图8A-8C是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声学路径的示意图。
如上所述,可以通过在声学路径中设置声管、声腔、声阻等结构来构造相应的声学滤波 网络,以实现对声音的分频。图8A-8C中示出了利用声学路径对声音信号进行分频的结构示意图。需要注意的是,图8A-8C仅作为利用声学路径对声音信号进行分频时,声学路径设置的示例,并非对本申请的限制。
如图8A所示,可以由一组或者一组以上的管腔结构串联组成声学路径,在管腔中设置声阻材料以调节整个结构的声阻抗,以实现滤波效果。在一些实施例中,可以通过调节官腔中各结构的尺寸和声阻材料对声音进行带通滤波或低通滤波,以实现对声音的分频。如图8B所示,可以在声学路径支路构造由一组或者一组以上的共振腔(例如,亥姆霍兹共振腔)结构,并通过调节各结构的尺寸和声阻材料实现滤波效果。如图8C所示,可以在声学路径构造管腔和共振腔(例如,亥姆霍兹共振腔)结构的组合,并通过调节各结构的尺寸和声阻材料实现滤波效果。
图9是根据本申请一些实施例所示的在两组双点声源的共同作用下的漏音的示例性曲线图。
图9示出了两组双点声源(一组高频双点声源和一组低频双点声源)共同作用下的声学输出装置(如声学输出装置100、声学输出装置300、声学输出装置400、声学输出装置500、声学输出装置600等)的漏音曲线。图中两组双点声源的分频点在700Hz左右。
采用归一化参数α作为评价漏音量的指标(α的计算参见公式(4)),如图9所示,相对于单点声源的情况,双点声源的降漏音能力更强。此外地,相对于只设置一组双点声源的声学输出装置,通过两组双点声源分别输出高频声音和低频声音,并使得低频双点声源的间距大于高频双点声源的间距。在低频范围内,通过设置较大的双点声源间距(d1),使得近场听音音量增量大于远场漏音音量增量,可以实现在低频段有较高的近场音量输出。同时由于在低频范围内,双点声源的漏音原本就很少,在增大双点声源间距后,稍有上升的漏音仍可保持较低水平。在高频范围内,通过设置较小的双点声源间距(d2),克服了高频降漏音截止频率过低,降漏音频段过窄的问题。因此,本申请实施例提供的声学输出装置通过在低频段设置双点声源间距d1,高频段设置双点声源间距d2,可以获得较单点声源、以及一组双点声源更强的降漏音能力。
在一些实施例中,受实际电路滤波特性、换能器频率特性、声通道频率特性等因素的影响,声学输出装置实际输出的低频、高频声音可能与图9所示存在差别。此外地,低频、高频声音可能会在分频点附近频带产生一定的重叠(混叠),导致声学输出装置的总降漏音不会如图9所示的在分频点处有突变,而是在分频点附近频段有渐变和过渡,如图9细实线所示意的。可以理解的,这些差异并不会影响本申请实施例提供声学输出装置的整体降漏音效果。
根据图4至图9及其相关描述,本申请提供的声学输出装置可以通过设置高频双点声源和低频双点声源实现不同频段下的声音输出,从而达到更好的声音输出效果;另外,可以通过设置不同间距的双点声源,使该声学输出装置在更高的频段有更强的降漏音能力的效果,满足开放双耳声学输出装置的需求。
在本申请的另一方面提供了另一声学输出装置。该声学输出装置可以包括至少一组声学驱动器,所述至少一组声学驱动器产生的声音可以通过与其声耦合的至少两个导声孔向外传播。在一些实施例中,所述声学输出装置上可以设有挡板结构,使得所述至少两个导声孔分别分布于挡板的两侧。在一些实施例中,所述至少两个导声孔可以分布于用户耳廓的两侧,此时耳廓作为挡板,可以隔开所述至少两个导声孔,使得所述至少两个导声孔具有不同的到用户耳道的声学路径。更多关于双点声源和挡板的描述,请参见2019年12月31日递交的PCT申请PCT/CN2019/130921和PCT/CN2019/130942,其全部内容通过引用的方式添加在本申请中。
图10是根据本申请一些实施例所示的另一声学输出装置的示例性的结构示意图。如图10所示,声学输出装置1000可以包括支撑结构1010以及设置在支撑结构内的声学驱动器1020。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置1000可以通过支撑结构1010佩戴在用户身体上(例如,人体的头部、颈部或者上部躯干),同时支撑结构1010和声学驱动器1020可以靠近但不堵塞耳道,使得用户耳朵保持开放的状态,在用户既能听到声学输出装置1000输出的声音的同时,又能获取外部环 境的声音。例如,声学输出装置1000可以环绕设置或者部分环绕设置在用户耳朵的周侧,并可以通过气传导或骨传导的方式进行声音的传递。
支撑结构1010可以用于佩戴在用户的身体上,并可以承载一个或多个声学驱动器1020。在一些实施例中,支撑结构1010可以是内部中空的封闭式壳体结构,且所述一个或多个声学驱动器1020位于支撑结构1010的内部。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置1000可以与眼镜、头戴式耳机、头戴式显示装置、AR/VR头盔等产品相结合,在这种情况下,支撑结构1010可以采用悬挂或夹持的方式固定在用户的耳朵的附近。在一些可替代的实施例中,支撑结构1010上可以设有挂钩,且挂钩的形状与耳廓的形状相匹配,从而声学输出装置1000可以通过挂钩独立佩戴在用户的耳朵上。独立佩戴使用的声学输出装置1000可以通过有线或无线(例如,蓝牙)的方式与信号源(例如,电脑、手机或其他移动设备)通信连接。例如,左右耳处的声学输出装置1000可以均通过无线的方式与信号源直接通信连接。又例如,左右耳处的声学输出装置1000可以包括第一输出装置和第二输出装置,其中第一输出装置可以与信号源进行通信连接,第二输出装置可以通过无线方式与第一输出装置无线连接,第一输出装置和第二输出装置之间通过一个或多个同步信号实现音频播放的同步。无线连接的方式可以包括但不限于蓝牙、局域网、广域网、无线个域网、近场通讯等或其任意组合。
在一些实施例中,支撑结构1010可以为具有人体耳朵适配形状的壳体结构,例如圆环形、椭圆形、多边形(规则或不规则)、U型、V型、半圆形,以便支撑结构1010可以直接挂靠在用户的耳朵处。在一些实施例中,支撑结构1010还可以包括一个或多个固定结构。所述固定结构可以包括耳挂、头梁或弹性带,使得声学输出装置1000可以更好地固定在用户身上,防止用户在使用时发生掉落。仅作为示例性说明,例如,弹性带可以为头带,头带可以被配置为围绕头部区域佩戴。又例如,弹性带可以为颈带,被配置为围绕颈/肩区域佩戴。在一些实施例中,弹性带可以是连续的带状物,并可以被弹性地拉伸以佩戴在用户的头部,同时弹性带还可以对用户的头部施加压力,使得声学输出装置1000牢固地固定在用户的头部的特定位置上。在一些实施例中,弹性带可以是不连续的带状物。例如,弹性带可以包括刚性部分和柔性部分,其中,刚性部分可以由刚性材料(例如,塑料或金属)制成,刚性部分可以与声学输出装置1000的支撑结构1010通过物理连接(例如,卡接、螺纹连接等)的方式进行固定。柔性部分可以由弹性材料制成(例如,布料、复合材料或/和氯丁橡胶)。
在一些实施例中,当用户佩戴声学输出装置1000时,支撑结构1010可以位于耳廓的上方或下方。支撑结构1010上还可以开设有用于传递声音的导声孔1011和导声孔1012。在一些实施例中,导声孔1011和导声孔1012可以分别位于用户耳廓的两侧,且声学驱动器1020可以通过导声孔1011和导声孔1012向外输出声音。
声学驱动器1020是一个可以接收电信号,并将其转换为声音信号进行输出的元件。在一些实施例中,按频率进行区分,声学驱动器1020的类型可以包括低频声学驱动器、高频声学驱动器或全频声学驱动器,或其任意组合。在一些实施例中,按原理进行区分,声学驱动器1020还可以包括但不限于动圈式、动铁式、压电式、静电式、磁致伸缩式等驱动器。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1020可以包括一个振膜。当振膜振动时,声音可以分别从该振膜的前侧和后侧发出。在一些实施例中,支撑结构1010内振膜前侧的位置设有用于传递声音的前室1013。前室1013与导声孔1011声学耦合,振膜前侧的声音可以通过前室1013从导声孔1011中发出。支撑结构1010内振膜后侧的位置设有用于传递声音的后室1014。后室1014与导声孔1012声学耦合,振膜后侧的声音可以通过后室1014从导声孔1012中发出。需要知道的是,当振膜在振动时,振膜前侧和后侧可以同时产生一组相位相反的声音。当声音分别通过前室1013和后室1014后,会从导声孔1011和导声孔1012的位置向外传播。在一些实施例中,可以通过设置前室1013和后室1014的结构,使得声学驱动器1020在导声孔1011和导声孔1012处输出的声音满足特定的条件。例如,可以设计前室1013和后室1014的长度,使得导声孔1011和导声孔1012 处可以输出一组具有特定相位关系(例如,相位相反)的声音,使得声学输出装置1000近场的听音音量较小和远场的漏音问题均得到有效改善。
在一些可替代的实施例中,声学驱动器1020也可以包括多个振膜(例如,两个振膜)。所述多个振膜分别振动产生声音,并分别通过支撑结构内与之相连的不同的腔体后从对应的导声孔处传出。所述多个振膜可以分别由相同或不同的控制器进行控制,并可以产生具有满足一定相位和幅值条件的声音(例如,振幅相同当相位相反的声音、振幅不同且相位相反的声音等)。
如上文所述(例如,图3A、3B及其相关描述),在声音频率一定的情况下,随着两个点声源之间间距的增加,与两个点声源对应的听音音量和漏音音量均增加。为更清楚的描述,将结合图11至图13进一步说明听音音量和漏音音量与点声源间距d的关系。
图11是根据本申请一些实施例所示的两个点声源与听音位置的示意图。如图11所示,点声源a1和点声源a2位于听音位置的同一侧,且点声源a1更靠近听音位置,点声源a1和点声源a2分别输出幅值相同但相位相反的声音。
图12是根据本申请一些实施例所示的不同间距的双点声源的听音音量随频率变化的曲线图。其中,横坐标表示双点声源输出声音的频率(f),单位为赫兹(Hz),纵坐标表示声音的音量,单位为分贝(dB)。如图12所示,随着点声源a1和点声源a2间距的逐渐增加(例如,由d增加到10d),听音位置的音量逐渐增大。这是由于随着点声源a1和点声源a2的间距增大,到达听音位置的两路声音的声压幅值差(即声压差)变大,声程差更大,使得声音相消的效果变弱,进而使得听音位置的音量增加。但由于声音相消的情况仍存在,听音位置处的音量在中低频段(例如,频率小于1000Hz的声音)仍小于同位置同强度的单点声源产生的音量。但在高频段(例如,频率接近10000Hz的声音),由于声音波长的变小,会出现满足声音相互增强的条件,使得双点声源产生的声音比单点声源的声音大。在本说明书的实施例中,声压幅值,即声压,可以是指声音通过空气的振动所产生的压强。
在一些实施例中,通过增加双点声源(例如,点声源a1和点声源a2)的间距可以提高听音位置处的音量,但随着间距的增加,双点声源声音相消的能力变弱,进而导致远场漏音的增加。仅仅作为说明,图13是根据本申请一些实施例提供的不同间距的双点声源在远场的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。其中,横坐标表示声音的频率(f),单位为赫兹(Hz),纵坐标采用归一化参数α作为评价漏音量的指标,单位为分贝(dB)。如图13所示,以单点声源的远场归一化参数α作为参照,随着双点声源的间距由d增加到10d,远场的归一化参数α逐渐升高,说明漏音逐渐变大。关于归一化参数α的具体内容可以参考公式(4)及其相关描述。
在一些实施例中,在声学输出装置中加入挡板结构,有利于提高声学输出装置的输出效果,即增大近场听音位置的声音强度,同时减小远场漏音的音量。仅仅作为说明,图14是根据本申请一些实施例提供的双点声源之间设置挡板的示例性分布示意图。如图14所示,当点声源a1和点声源a2之间设有挡板时,在近场,点声源a2的声场需要绕过挡板才能与点声源a1的声波在听音位置处产生干涉,相当于增加了点声源a2到听音位置的声程。因此,假设点声源a1和点声源a2具有相同的幅值,则相比于没有设置挡板的情况,点声源a1和点声源a2在听音位置的声波的幅值差增大,从而两路声音在听音位置进行相消的程度减少,使得听音位置的音量增大。在远场,由于点声源a1和点声源a2产生的声波在较大的空间范围内都不需要绕过挡板就可以发生干涉(类似于无挡板情形),则相比于没有挡板的情况,远场的漏音不会明显增加。因此,在点声源a1和点声源a2之间设置挡板结构,可以在远场漏音音量不显著增加的情况下,显著提升近场听音位置的音量。
在本申请中,当双点声源分别位于耳廓的两侧时,耳廓具有挡板的效果,因此为方便起见,耳廓也可以被称作挡板。作为示例性说明,由于耳廓的存在,其结果可等效为近场声音由间距为D1的双点声源产生(也称为模式1),而远场声音由间距为D2的双点声源产生(也称为模式2),其中D1>D2。图15是根据本申请一些实施例所示的耳廓位于双点声源之间时听音音量随频率 变化的曲线图。如图15所示,当频率较低时(例如,频率小于1000Hz时),双点声源分布在耳廓两侧时的近场声音(即用户耳朵听到的声音)的音量与模式1的近场声音音量基本相同,均大于模式2的近场声音音量,且接近单点声源的近场声音音量。随着频率的增加(例如,频率在2000Hz-7000Hz时),模式1和双点声源分布在耳廓两侧时的近场声音的音量大于单点声源。由此说明当用户的耳廓位于在双点声源之间时,可以有效地增强声源传递到用户耳朵的近场声音音量。图16是根据本申请一些实施例所示的耳廓位于双点声源之间时漏音音量随频率变化的曲线图。如图16所示,随着频率的增加,远场漏音音量都会有所增加,但是当双点声源分布在耳廓两侧时,其产生的远场漏音音量与模式2的远场漏音音量基本相同,均小于模式1的远场漏音音量和单点声源的远场漏音音量。由此说明当用户的耳廓位于双点声源之间时,可以有效地降低声源传递到远场的声音,即可以有效减少声源向周围环境发出的漏音。图17是根据本申请一些实施例所示的声学输出装置的双点声源分布在耳廓两侧时归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。如图17所示,在频率小于10000Hz时,双点声源分布在耳廓两侧时的归一化参数要小于模式1(双点声源之间无挡板结构,且间距为D1)、模式2(双点声源之间无挡板结构,且间距为D2)以及单点声源情况下的归一化参数,由此说明在双点声源分别位于耳廓两侧时,声学输出装置具有更好地降漏音能力。
为了进一步说明双点声源或两个导声孔之间有无挡板时对声学输出装置的声音输出效果的影响,现以不同条件下的听音位置的近场音量或/和远场漏音音量作具体说明。
图18是根据本申请一些实施例所示的两个点声源之间在有无挡板的情况下听音音量及漏音音量随频率变化的曲线图。如图18所示,声学输出装置在两个点声源(即两个导声孔)之间增加挡板以后,在近场,相当于增大了两个点声源的间距,在近场听音位置的音量相当于由一组距离较大的双点声源产生,使得近场的听音音量相对于无挡板的情况明显增加。在远场,由于两个点声源产生的声波的干涉受挡板的影响很小,漏音相当于是由一组距离较小的双点声源产生,故漏音在有/无挡板的情况下并变化不明显。由此可知,通过在两个导声孔(双点声源)之间设置挡板,在有效提升声学输出装置降漏音能力的同时,还可以显著增加声音输出装置的近场音量。因而对声学输出装置中起到发声作用的组件要求大大降低,同时能够减少声学输出装置的电损耗,故在电量一定的情况下,还能大大延长声学输出装置的使用时间。
图19是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源频率为300Hz时在有无挡板的情况下听音音量及漏音音量随双点声源间距变化的曲线图。图20是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源频率为1000Hz时在有无挡板的情况下听音音量及漏音音量随双点声源间距变化的曲线图。如图19和图20所示,在近场,当频率为300Hz或1000Hz时,随着双点声源间距d的增大,双点声源之间存在挡板时的听音音量始终大于双点声源之间无挡板时的听音音量,这说明在该频率下,双点声源之间设置挡板结构可以有效地提高近场的听音音量。在远场,双点声源之间有挡板时漏音音量与双点声源之间无挡板时漏音音量相当,这说明在该频率下,双点声源之间是否设置挡板结构对远场漏音的影响不大。
图21是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源频率为5000Hz时在有无挡板的情况下听音音量及漏音音量随双点声源间距变化的曲线图。如图21所示,在近场,当频率为5000Hz时,随着双点声源间距d的增大,双点声源之间存在挡板时的听音音量始终大于双点声源之间无挡板时的听音音量。在远场,有挡板和无挡板的双点声源的漏音音量随间距d的变化而呈现波动性变化,但整体上可以看出,双点声源之间是否设置挡板结构对远场漏音的影响不大。
图22是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为1cm时听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图23是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为2cm时听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图24是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为4cm时听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图25是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为1cm时远场的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图,图26是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为2cm时远场的归一化 参数随频率变化的曲线图,图27是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源间距d为4cm时远场的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。如图22至图24所示,对于不同的导声孔的间距d(例如,1cm、2cm、4cm),在一定的频率下,在近场听音位置(例如,用户耳朵),两个导声孔分别设置于耳廓两侧(即,图中所示“有挡板作用”的情况)时提供的音量都要比两个导声孔未设置于耳廓两侧(即,图中所示“无挡板作用”的情况)时提供的音量大。这里所说的一定频率可以是在10000Hz以下,或者优选地,在5000Hz以下,或者更优选地,在1000Hz以下。
如图25至27所示,对于不同的导声孔的间距d(例如,1cm、2cm、4cm),在一定的频率下,在远场位置(例如,远离用户耳朵的环境位置),两个导声孔分别设置于耳廓两侧时产生的漏音音量都要比两个导声孔未设置于耳廓两侧时产生的漏音音量小。需要知道的是,随着两个导声孔或者双点声源的间距增加,远场位置处声音相消干涉会减弱,导致远场的漏音逐渐增加,降漏音能力变弱。因此两个导声孔或者双点声源的间距d不能太大。在一些实施例中,为了保持声音输出装置在近场可以输出尽可能大的声音,同时抑制远场的漏音,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不大于20cm,优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不大于12cm,更优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不大于10cm,进一步优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不大于6cm。在一些实施例中,考虑到声学输出装置的尺寸以及导声孔的结构要求,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不小于1cm且不大于12cm,优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不小于1cm且不大于10cm,更优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不小于1cm且不大于8cm,更优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不小于1cm且不大于6cm,更优选地,两个导声孔之间的间距d可以设置为不小于1cm且不大于3cm。
需要注意的是,以上描述仅为描述方便,并不用于限制本申请。可以理解,对于本领域的技术人员来说,在了解本申请的原理后,可以在不违背这一原理的情况下,对上述声学输出装置进行形式和细节上的各种修正和改变。例如,在一些实施例中,挡板两侧的导声孔数量不限于上述的一个,还可以为多个,可以相同或不同。例如挡板一侧的导声孔数量可以为两个,另一侧的导声孔数量可以为两个或三个。以上这些改变均在本申请的保护范围内。
在一些实施例中,在保持双点声源间距一定的前提下,听音位置相对于双点声源的位置对于近场听音音量和远场降漏音具有一定影响。为了提高声学输出装置的输出效果,在一些实施例中,声学输出装置上可以设置至少两个导声孔,且该至少两个导声孔包括两个分别位于用户耳廓前后两侧的两个导声孔。在一些特定的实施例中,考虑到位于用户耳廓后侧的导声孔传出的声音需要绕开耳廓才能到达用户的耳道,位于耳廓前侧的导声孔距离用户耳道的声学路径(即,导声孔到用户耳道入口位置的声学距离)短于位于耳廓后侧的导声孔距离用户耳朵的声学路径。为了进一步说明听音位置对声音输出效果的影响,作为示例性说明,在本说明书的实施例中,如图28所示,选取了四个有代表性的听音位置(听音位置1、听音位置2、听音位置3、听音位置4),对听音位置选取的效果和原理做阐述。其中,听音位置1、听音位置2和听音位置3与点声源a1的间距相等,为r1,听音位置4与点声源a1的间距为r2,且r2<r1,点声源a1和点声源a2分别产生相位相反的声音。
图29是根据本申请一些实施例所示的无挡板的双点声源在近场不同听音位置的听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图30是在图29的基础上,根据公式(4)求得的不同听音位置的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。如图29和30所示,对于听音位置1,由于点声源a1和点声源a2在听音位置1的声程差较小,两个点声源在听音位置1产生的声音的幅值差较小,所以两个点声源的声音在听音位置1干涉以后导致听音音量相比于其他听音位置要更小。对于听音位置2,相比于听音位置1,该听音位置与点声源a1的间距未变,即点声源a1到听音位置2的声程没有发生变化,但是听音位置2与点声源a2的间距变大,点声源a2到达听音位置2的声程增大,点声源a1和点声源a2在该位置产生的声音的幅值差增加,所以两个点声源的声音在听音位置2干涉后的听音音量大于听音位置1处的听音音量。由于在所有以r1为半径的圆弧位置中,点声源a1和点声源a2到 听音位置3的声程差最大,所以相比于听音位置1和听音位置2,听音位置3的听音音量最大。对于听音位置4,由于听音位置4与点声源a1的间距较小,点声源a1在该位置的声音幅值较大,所以该听音位置的听音音量较大。综上可知,近场听音位置的听音音量会随着听音位置与两个点声源的相对位置的变化而变化。当听音位置处于两个点声源的连线上且位于两个点声源同侧(例如,听音位置3)时,两个点声源在听音位置的声程差最大(声程差为两个点声源的间距d),则在这种情况下(即,耳廓不作为挡板时),此听音位置的听音音量比其他位置听音音量大。根据公式(4),在远场漏音一定的情况下,该听音位置对应的归一化参数最小,降漏音能力最强。同时,减小听音位置与点声源a1的间距r1(例如,听音位置4),可以进一步增加听音位置的音量,同时减小漏音指数,提高降漏音能力。
图31是根据本申请一些实施例所示的有挡板的双点声源(如图28所示的情况)在近场不同听音位置的听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图32是在图31的基础上,根据公式(4)求得的不同听音位置的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。如图31和32所示,相对于无挡板的情况,有挡板时双点声源在听音位置1产生的听音音量显著增加,且听音位置1的听音音量超过了听音位置2和听音位置3处的听音音量。这是由于在两个点声源之间加入挡板以后,点声源a2到达听音位置1的声程增加,导致两个点声源到达听音位置1的声程差显著增大,两个点声源在听音位置1上产生的声音的幅值差增大,不易产生声音的干涉相消,从而导致在听音位置1产生的听音音量显著增加。在听音位置4,由于听音位置与点声源A1的间距进一步减小,点声源a1在该位置的声音幅值较大,所以听音位置4的听音音量在所取的4个听音位置中仍然是最大的。对于听音位置2和听音位置3,挡板对于点声源a2的声场到达此两处听音位置的声程增加效果并不是很明显,所以在听音位置2和听音位置3处的音量增加效果要小于距离挡板较近的听音位置1和听音位置4的音量增加效果。
由于远场的漏音音量不随听音位置的改变而发生变化,而近场听音位置的听音音量随听音位置的改变而发生变化,故在不同的听音位置,根据公式(4),声学输出装置的归一化参数不同。其中,听音音量较大的听音位置(例如,听音位置1和听音位置4),归一化参数小,降漏音能力强;听音音量较小的听音位置(例如,听音位置2和听音位置3),归一化参数较大,降漏音能力较弱。
因此,根据声学输出装置的实际应用场景,可以将用户的耳廓作为挡板,将声学输出装置上两个导声孔分别设置在耳廓的前后两侧,耳道作为听音位置位于两个导声孔之间。在一些实施例中,通过设计两个导声孔在声学输出装置上的位置,使得耳廓前侧的导声孔到耳道的距离比耳廓后侧的导声孔到耳道的距离小,此时由于耳廓前侧的导声孔距离耳道的距离较近,耳廓前侧导声孔在耳道处产生的声音幅值较大,而耳廓后侧导声孔在耳道处产生的声音幅值较小,避免了两个导声孔处的声音在耳道处的干涉相消,从而确保耳道处的听音音量较大。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置上可以包括一个或多个在佩戴时与耳廓接触的接触点(例如,支撑结构上用于匹配耳朵形状的“拐点”)。所述接触点可以位于两个导声孔的连线上或者位于两个导声孔连线的一侧。且前侧的导声孔到接触点的距离与后侧的导声孔到接触点的距离之比可以在0.05-20之间,优选地,在0.1-10之间,更优选地,在0.2-5之间,进一步优选地,在0.4-2.5之间。
图33是根据本申请一些实施例所示的双点声源与挡板(例如,耳廓)的示例性分布示意图。在一些实施例中,挡板在两个导声孔间的位置也对声音的输出效果具有一定影响。仅仅作为示例性说明,如图33所示,在点声源a1和点声源a2之间设置挡板,听音位置位于点声源a1和点声源a2的连线上,且听音位置位于点声源a1与挡板之间,点声源a1与挡板的间距为L,点声源a1与点声源a2之间的间距为d,点声源a1与听音的间距为L1,听音位置与挡板之间的间距为L2。当听音位置与点声源a1的间距L1不变时,移动挡板的位置,使得点声源a1与挡板的间距L和双点声源间距d具有不同的比例关系,可以获得在该不同比例关系下听音位置的听音音量和远场漏音音量。
图34是根据本申请一些实施例所示的挡板在不同位置时近场的听音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图35是根据本申请一些实施例所示的挡板在不同位置时远场漏音音量随频率变化的曲线图,图36是根据本申请一些实施例所示的挡板在不同位置时的归一化参数随频率变化的曲线图。结合图34至图36,远场的漏音随挡板在双点声源间的位置变化很小。在点声源a1和点声源a2的间距d保持不变时,当L减小时,听音位置的音量增加,归一化参数减小,降漏音能力增强;当L增大时,听音位置的音量增加,漏音指数变大,降漏音能力减弱。产生以上结果的原因是当L较小时,听音位置距离挡板较近,挡板增加了点声源a2的声波传播到听音位置的声程,从而增大了点声源a1和点声源a2到达听音位置的声程差,减少了声音的干涉相消,所以加挡板以后听音位置的音量增加更大。当L较大时,听音位置距离挡板较远,挡板对点声源a1和点声源a2到达听音位置的声程差的影响较小,所以加挡板以后听音位置的音量变化较小。
由以上可知,通过设计声学输出装置上导声孔的位置,使得在用户佩戴声学输出装置时,将人体的耳廓作为挡板来隔开不同的导声孔,在简化声学输出装置的结构的同时,可以进一步提到声学输出装置的输出效果。在一些实施例中,可以设计两个导声孔的位置,使得当用户佩戴声学输出装置时,耳廓前侧的导声孔到耳廓(或者声学输出装置上用于与耳廓接触的接触点)的距离与两个导声孔之间的间距的比值不大于0.5。优选地,位于耳廓前侧的导声孔到耳廓(或者声学输出装置上用于与耳廓接触的接触点)的距离与两个导声孔间距的比值不大于0.3。更优选地,位于耳廓前侧的导声孔到耳廓(或者声学输出装置上用于与耳廓接触的接触点)的距离与两个导声孔间距的比值不大于0.1。在一些实施例中,耳廓前侧的导声孔到耳廓(或者声学输出装置上用于与耳廓接触的接触点)的间距与两个导声孔之间的间距不小于0.05。在一些实施例中,两个导声孔的间距与耳廓的高度的比值不小于0.2。优选地,两个导声孔的间距与耳廓的高度的比值不大于4。在本说明书的实施例中,耳廓的高度可以是指沿着垂直于矢状面的方向的耳廓的长度。
需要知道的是,声学输出装置中声学驱动器到导声孔的声程对近场音量和远场漏音具有一定影响。该声程可以通过调整声学输出装置内振膜和导声孔之间的腔体长度来改变。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器包括一个振膜,且振膜的前后侧分别通过前室和后室耦合到两个导声孔。所述振膜到两个导声孔之间的声程不同。优选地,所述振膜到两个导声孔的声程比为0.5-2。更优选地,所述振膜到两个导声孔的声程比为0.6-1.5。进一步优选地,所述振膜到两个导声孔的声程比为0.8-1.2。
在一些实施例中,可以在保持两个导声孔处产生的声音的相位相反的前提下,改变两个导声孔处产生的声音的幅值来提高声学输出装置的输出效果。具体地,可以通过调节两个导声孔与声学驱动器之间声学路径的阻抗来达到调节导声孔处声音幅值的目的。在本说明书的实施例中,阻抗可以是指声波传导时介质位移需要克服的阻力。所述声学路径中可以填充或者不填充阻尼材料(例如,调音网、调音棉等)来实现声音的调幅。例如,在一些实施例中,声学路径中可以设置谐振腔、声孔、声狭缝、调音网或调音棉来调整声阻,以改变声学路径的阻抗。再例如,在一些实施例中,还可以通过调节两个导声孔的孔径以改变声学路径的声阻。优选地,声学驱动器(的振膜)至两个导声孔的声阻抗之比为0.5-2。更优选地,声学驱动器(的振膜)至两个导声孔的声阻抗之比为0.8-1.2。
需要注意的是,以上描述仅为描述方便,并不用于限制本申请。可以理解,对于本领域的技术人员来说,在了解本申请的原理后,可以在不违背这一原理的情况下,对上述声学输出装置进行形式和细节上的各种修正和改变,例如,听音位置可以不在双点声源的连线上,也可以在双点声源连线的上方、下方或延伸方向上。又例如,点声源至耳廓的间距、耳廓的高度的测量方式还可以根据不同的场景进行调整。以上类似的改变均在本申请的保护范围内。
图37是根据本申请一些实施例所示的又一种声学输出装置的示例性结构示意图。
对于人耳听音来说,听音的频段主要集中于中低频段,在该频段主要以增加听音音量为优化目标。若听音位置固定,通过一定手段调节双点声源的参数,可以实现听音音量有显著增加 而漏音音量基本不变的效果(听音音量的增量大于漏音音量的增量)。在高频段,双点声源的降漏音效果变弱,在该频段主要以减小漏音为优化目标。通过一定手段调节不同频率的双点声源的参数,可以实现漏音的进一步减小以及降漏音频段的扩大。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置1000还可以包括声学驱动器1030。声学驱动器1030从两个第二导声孔输出声音。关于声学驱动器1030与第二导声孔以及二者之间的结构,可以参考声学驱动器1020以及第一导声孔的具体描述。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1030与声学驱动器1020可以分别输出不同频率的声音。在一些实施例中,声学输出装置还可以包括控制器,控制器被配置为使声学驱动器1020输出在第一频率范围内的声音,并且使声学驱动器1030输出在第二频率范围内的声音,其中,第二频率范围中包括高于第一频率范围的频率。例如,第一频率的范围为100Hz-1000Hz,第二频率的范围为1000Hz-10000Hz。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1020为低频扬声器,声学驱动器1030为中高频扬声器。由于低频扬声器和中高频扬声器自身频率响应特性的不同,其输出的声音频段也会有所不同,通过使用低频扬声器和中高频扬声器可以实现对高低频段的声音进行分频,进而可以通过分别构建低频双点声源和中高频双点声源来进行近场声音的输出和远场降漏音。例如,声学驱动器1020可以通过导声孔1011和导声孔1012提供输出低频声音的双点声源,主要用于输出低频频段的声音。低频双点声源可以分布于耳廓的两侧,用来增加近场耳朵附近的音量。声学驱动器1030可以通过两个第二导声孔提供输出中高频频段的双点声源,并通过控制两个第二导声孔的间距,可以降低中高频的漏音。中高频双点声源可以分布于耳廓的两侧,也可以分布在耳廓的同一侧。可替代地,声学驱动器1020可以通过导声孔1011和导声孔1012提供输出全频声音的双点声源,用来进一步增加近场声音的音量。
进一步地,两个第二导声孔的间距d2小于导声孔1011和导声孔1012的间距d1,即d1大于d2。仅仅作为说明,如图9所示,通过设置两组间距不同的低频双点声源和高频双点声源可以获得较单点声源、以及一组双点声源更强的降漏音能力。
需要说明的是,声学输出装置的导声孔不局限于图37所示的声学驱动器1720对应的两个导声孔1011和导声孔1012分布于耳廓的两侧以及声学驱动器1030对应的两个第二导声孔分布于耳廓的前侧的情况。例如,在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1030对应的两个第二导声孔可以分布于耳廓的同一侧(例如,耳廓的后侧、上方或下方)。又例如,在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1030对应的两个第二导声孔可以分布于耳廓的两侧。在其他的实施例中,当两个导声孔1011、导声孔1012或/和两个第二导声孔位于耳廓的同一侧时,在两个导声孔1011、导声孔1012之间或/和两个第二导声孔之间可以设置挡板,以进一步提高近场的听音音量和降低远场漏音。再例如,在一些实施例中,声学驱动器1020对应的两个导声孔还可以位于耳廓的同一侧(例如,耳廓的前侧、后侧、上方、下方)。
图38是根据本申请的一些实施例所示的示例性开放双耳式耳机的剖面结构示意图。图39是根据本申请一些实施例所示的示例性开放双耳式耳机的发声结构的示意图。例如,图39可以是图38中发声结构3805的放大图。图40是根据本申请一些实施例所示的示例性开放双耳式耳机的隔板结构的截面示意图。例如,图40可以为图38中隔板结构沿C-C的截面示意图。如图38、图39和/或图40所示,所述开放双耳式耳机3800可以包括壳体3810、至少一个麦克风3820、声学驱动器3830、与声学驱动器3830对应的导声管3840(例如,导声管3840-1、导声管3840-2、导声管3840-3、导声管3840-4等)、隔板3850、电路板3860、蓝牙模块3870,以及电源模块3880。在一些实施例中,所述开放双耳式耳机3800还可以包括电子分频模块(图中未示出,可以参见电子分频模块110)。在一些实施例中,所述电子分频模块、所述声学驱动器3830、以及导声管3840可以一起被称为声学输出装置。更多关于声学输出装置的描述可以参见图1至图37中有关声学输出装置(例如,声学输出装置100、声学输出装置300、声学输出装置400、声学输出装置500、声学输出装置600、声学输出装置1000等)的描述,此处不在赘述。
在一些实施例中,所述电子分频模块可以设置于壳体3810中。示例性的电子分频模块可以包括无源滤波器、有源滤波器、模拟滤波器、数字滤波器等,或其组合。在一些实施例中,可通过设置不同频率响应特性的声学驱动器3830(例如,设置低频换能器、中频换能器和/或高频换能器),使具有不同频率响应的换能器输出的声音包含不同的频段成分。在一些实施例中,还可以在声学路径中实现音频信号的分频处理。例如,声学驱动器3830可以产生全频带声音,通过设置具有不同声学阻抗的声学路径可对声学驱动器3830输出的声音进行声学滤波,使得通过不同声学路径输出的声音具有不同的频率成分。更多关于声学路径分频的描述可以参见图4、8A至8C及其描述,此处不再赘述。在一些实施例中,音频信号的分频处理也可以通过上述两种或两种以上的方式进行组合实现。
所述声学驱动器3830产生的不同频率的声音信号可以经由不同的导声管3840从不同的导声孔3842(例如,导声孔3842-1、导声孔3842-2、导声孔3842-3、导声孔3842-4等)输出给用户。需要注意的是,导声管3840仅仅是声音能够在开放双耳式耳机3800中传播的声学路径的一种示例性实施方式。本领域技术人员还可以想到通过其他声学路径(如声腔、谐振腔、声孔、声狭缝、调音网等中的一种或其任意组合的结构)或其他方式使声音在开放双耳式耳机3800中传播,此处不做限定。
在一些实施例中,将音频信号处理后生成的分频信号可以具有比音频信号的频带更窄的频带但其频带位于音频信号的频带范围内。例如,音频信号的频带范围可以是10Hz到30kHz。分频信号的频带可以是100Hz到200Hz,其比音频信号的频带范围窄且在音频信号的频带范围内。在一些实施例中,分频信号的频带的组合可以完全覆盖音频信号的频带。附加地或替换地,分频信号的频带的组合可以部分覆盖音频信号的频带。在一些实施例中,分频信号中的至少两个可以具有不同的频带(不同的频带指的是频带中心值和频带宽度中至少一个参数不同的两个频带)。可选地,每个分频信号可以具有与其他分频信号的频带不同的特征频带(即包含与其他分频信号的频带范围均未重叠的频带)。不同的分频信号可以具有相同的频率带宽或不同的频率带宽。在一些实施例中,可以避免频域中一对相邻分频信号的频带之间的重叠,从而提高语音输出效果。在处理后生成的分频信号中,中心频率接近的两个分频信号可以被认为在频域中彼此相邻。关于一对相邻分频信号的频带的更多描述可以参见图42A和42B及其相关描述。在一些实施例中,受实际电路滤波特性、换能器频率特性、声通道频率特性等因素的影响,开放双耳式耳机3800实际输出的低频、高频声音可能会在分频点附近频带产生一定的重叠(混叠)。可以理解的,这些重叠并不会影响本申请实施例提供的开放双耳式耳机3800的整体降漏音效果。
壳体3810为开放双耳式耳机3800的外部结构,其形状根据耳机的佩戴方式(例如,耳挂式耳机和头箍式耳机)及具体使用要求相应设置,此处不做具体限定。例如,壳体3810可以与用户耳廓相互配合,其挂在用户耳朵上不易掉落。拥有该壳体3810的开放双耳式耳机3800也可以被称为耳挂式耳机。又例如,壳体3810可以横跨在用户头顶,以类似头箍的形式固定在人头部,并使其两端距离用户耳朵一定距离。拥有该壳体3810的开放双耳式耳机也可以被称为头箍式耳机。
所述壳体3810可为中空结构。麦克风3820、声学驱动器3830、导声管3840、隔板3850、电路板3860、蓝牙模块3870,以及电源模块3880等可被设置在该中空结构中。如图38所示,麦克风3820和声学驱动器3830可位于在壳体3810的前端;电路板3860可位于壳体3810的中段;蓝牙模块3870和电源模块3880可以位于壳体3810的后端。在一些实施例中,所述麦克风3820、声学驱动器3830、导声管3840、隔板3850、电路板3860、蓝牙模块3870和电源模块3880可位于壳体3810的任何其他合适的位置,此处不做具体限定。例如,声学驱动器3830-1、麦克风3820、电路板3860等可以位于壳体3810的前端,蓝牙模块3870可以位于壳体3810的中段;声学驱动器3830-2、电池模块3880可以位于壳体3810的后端。又例如,蓝牙模块3870和电源模块3880可以位于壳体3810的前端;麦克风3820和电路板3860可以位于壳体3810的中段;声学驱 动器3830-1和声学驱动器3830-2都可以位于壳体3810的后端,其可以通过导声管使导声孔设置在壳体3810的前端。需要注意的是,所述麦克风3820、声学驱动器3830、导声管3840、隔板3850、电路板3860、蓝牙模块3870和电源模块3880等部件在壳体3810中位置可以依据开放双耳式耳机3800的需求而设置,附图中各部件的具体位置只是为了说明的目的,并不限制本申请的保护范围。如图40所示,声学驱动器3830-1和声学驱动器3830-2可以由隔板3850隔开。
在一些实施例中,所述壳体3810可以是一体成型的。在一些实施例中,所述壳体3810也可以是通过插接、卡接等方式装配而成的。在一些实施例中,壳体3810可以由金属材料(例如,铜、铝、钛、金等),合金材料(例如,铝合金、钛合金等),塑料材料(例如,聚乙烯、聚丙烯、环氧树脂、尼龙等)、纤维材料(例如,醋酸纤维、丙酸纤维、碳纤维等)等制成。在一些实施例中,壳体3810外部可以设置有护套。护套可由具有一定弹性的软质材料制成,例如软质的硅胶、橡胶等,为用户佩戴提供较好的触感。
所述壳体3810表面可设置导声孔,例如,第一导声孔3842-1、第二导声孔3842-2、第三导声孔3842-3、第四导声孔3842-4等。所述开放双耳式耳机3800可通过导声孔将声音通过空气输送给用户。声学驱动器3830可以将分频信号(例如,电信号)转换成声音信号,通过对应的导声管将声音信号传输到对应的导声孔,再由导声孔传输给用户。为了进一步说明壳体3810上导声孔的设置对开放双耳式耳机3800声音输出效果的影响,且考虑到声音可以被看作是从导声孔处向外传播,本申请中将开放双耳式耳机3800上的导声孔看作对外输出声音的声源进行描述(当然实际上的声源还是发声装置)。仅仅为了方便描述和出于说明的目的,当开放双耳式耳机3800上的导声孔尺寸较小时,每个导声孔可以近似视为一个点声源。
麦克风3820可用于接收外部的声音信号(例如,用户的语音信号),并将接收到的声音信号转化成电信号。麦克风3820接收到的声音信号经处理(例如,过滤、去噪、放大、平滑和/或分频等)后可以得到音频信号(或分频信号),并将所述音频信号通过开放双耳式耳机3800其他组件(如蓝牙组件、WIFI组件)发送给与开放双耳式耳机3800进行通讯的对象或设备。
声学驱动器3830可用于将输入的电信号转换成声音信号后输出。所述转换的方法可以是振动发声的方法。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器3830可以因为其各自频率响应的不同将接收到的音频信号处理成分频信号后,并转换成不同频段的声音信号,再分别将其输出给佩戴所述开放双耳式耳机3800的用户。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器3830可以直接接收不同频段的分频信号,将接收到的分频信号转换成声音信号后,再分别将其输出给佩戴所述开放双耳式耳机3800的用户。在一些实施例中,所述声学驱动器3830可以包括至少两个扬声器单元(或换能器)。仅作为示例,图38、图39以及图40均只描述出两个扬声器单元,即,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2。其中,第一扬声器单元3830-1对应低频信号,第二扬声器单元3830-2对应高频信号。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器3830可以包括气导扬声器、骨导扬声器、水声换能器、超声换能器等,或其组合。在一些实施例中,声学驱动器3830可以包括动圈式扬声器、动铁式扬声器、压电式扬声器、静电式扬声器、磁致伸缩式扬声器、平衡电枢式扬声器等,或其组合。在一些实施例中,每个扬声器单元可以具有相同的频响特性。在一些实施例中,每个扬声器单元可以具有不同的频响特性。
值得注意的是,特定扬声器单元与特定分频信号对应可以指输入所述特定扬声器单元的分频信号的频段可以与所述特定分频信号的频段相同,也可以指所述特定扬声器单元可以产生所述特定声音信号,还可以指通过所述特定扬声器单元处理后传出的信号经导声孔传出的声音信号的频段与所述特定分频信号相同。
每个扬声器单元可用于将输入的电信号(如不同的分频信号)通过振动发声的方法转换成声音信号后输出。在一些实施例中,每个扬声器单元可对应两个导声孔。每个扬声器单元可输出一组相位相反且强度相同的声音信号,并分别通过导声管3840和对应的两个导声孔3842传播给用户。例如,扬声器单元可包含振膜,其受到电信号驱动而产生振动,振膜正面和背面可以同 时输出正相声音和反相声音。在一些实施例中,通过设置导声孔位置,可以使得正相声音和反相声音在听音位置(即,近场如人耳耳孔中心位置)的相位相同或相近而叠加;同时使得远场(周围环境中常见的漏音点)的正相声音和反相声音相位相反而抵消,这样可以在保证近场声音音量的前提下提高开放双耳式耳机3800的降漏音能力。在一些实施例中,对应于同一个扬声器单元的两个导声孔可以被称为双点声源。例如,与扬声器单元3830-1对应的第一导声孔3842-1和第二导声孔3842-2可以被称为双点声源;与扬声器单元3830-2对应的第三导声孔3842-3和第四导声孔3842-4也可以被称为双点声源。在一些实施例中,从双点声源中的每个导声孔传出的分频信号的频带和振幅可以相同,相位可以不同(例如,可以相反)。在一些实施例中,从双点声源中的每个导声孔传出的分频信号的频带可以相同,相位可以相同。在一些实施例中,扬声器单元可以只对应唯一的导声孔。即,扬声器单元对应一个单点声源。也就是说,所述扬声器单元可以只输出唯一的分频信号。例如,扬声器单元3830-1的朝向导声孔3842-2的一面可以是封闭的。可以通过使用两个扬声器单元(即两个单点声源)构造双点声源。例如,可以使用两个平衡电枢式扬声器构造高频双点声源(即,该双点声源对应高频信号)。在一些实施例中,每组双点声源中每个单点声源对应的分频信号的频率、相位、振幅导等参数可以各自调节。例如,每组双点声源中每个单点声源的频率可以相同,相位可以相同或不同。又例如,每组双点声源中每个单点声源的频率可以相同,振幅可以相同或不同。
在一些实施例中,扬声器单元所对应的分频信号的频段越高,则与其对应的导声孔之间的距离可以越短。例如,第一扬声器单元3830-1可用于输出低频信号,第二扬声器单元3830-2可用于输出高频信号,其中,第一扬声器单元3830-1对应的第一导声孔3842-1和第二导声孔3842-2之间的距离可以大于第二扬声器单元3830-2对应的第三导声孔3842-3和第四导声孔3842-4之间的距离。通过如此对扬声器单元所对应的导声孔距离的设置,可以提高开放双耳式耳机3800的降漏音能力。这是因为在双点声源间距固定的情况下,双点声源产生的漏音会随音频频率的增加而增加,降漏音能力随音频频率的增加而减弱。当频率大于某值时其产生的漏音会大于单点声源,此频率即为双点声源能够降漏音的上限频率。关于频率与双点声源距离以及降漏音的上限频率的更多描述可以参见本说明书其他地方(如图2和图3及其相关描述)。针对不同的分频信号,通过设置多组间距不同的双点声源,可获得较单点声源更强的降漏音能力。例如,可将音频信号分为如低、中、高3个频段。通过设置不同的间距以获得低频双点声源、中频双点声源和高频双点声源。其中,低频双点声源间距最大,中频双点声源间距居中,高频双点声源间距最小。在低频段,由于扩大声源间距后听音增量大于漏音音量增量,可实现在低频段有较高的音量输出。同时,由于在低频段双点声源的漏音原本就很少,在扩大声源间距后,稍有上升的漏音仍可保持较低水平。在高频段,通过减小声源间距,克服了高频降漏音上限频率过低,降漏音频段过窄的问题。其在更高的频段有更强的降漏音能力的效果,可以满足开放双耳的需求。
在一些实施例中,声学驱动器3830可以只包括第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2,其中第一扬声器单元3830-1对应低频信号,第二扬声器单元3830-2对应高频信号。在一些实施例中,低频与高频的分频点可以在600Hz-1.2kHz之间。在一些实施例中,第一扬声器单元3830-1可以对应两个导声孔3842-1和3842-2;第二扬声器单元3830-2可以对应两个导声孔3842-3和3842-4。所述导声孔3842-1和3842-2之间的距离d l以及导声孔3842-3和3842-4之间的距离d h可以是任意值。仅作为示例,d l可以不大于40mm,例如,在20mm–40mm的范围内,d h可以不大于12mm,且d l大于第d h。优选地,d l可以不小于12mm,d h可以不大于7mm,例如,在3mm–7mm的范围内。更优选地,d l可以是30mm,d h可以是5mm。再例如,d l可以至少是d h的2倍以上。优选地,d l可以至少是d h的3倍以上。优选地,第d l可以至少是d h的5倍以上。在一些实施例中,d l/d h的范围可以为2-10;优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为2.5-9.5;更优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为3-9;更优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为3.5-8.5;更优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为4-8;更优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为4.5-7.5;更优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为5-7;更 优选地,d l/d h的范围可以为5.5-6.5;更优选地,d l/d h可以为6。
在一些实施例中,每组双点声源可以包括近耳点声源和远耳点声源。例如,当使用者佩戴开放双耳式耳机3800时,第一导声孔3842-1相对于第二导声孔3842-2距离耳孔更近,第三导声孔3842-3相对于第四导声孔3842-4距离耳孔更近,则第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3可以被称为近耳点声源,第二导声孔3842-2和第四导声孔3842-4可以被称为远耳点声源。在一些实施例中,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3之间的距离L可以不大于20mm;可选地,L可以不大于18mm;更优选地,L可以不大于16mm;更优选地,L可以不大于14mm;更优选地,L可以不大于12mm;更优选地,L可以不大于10mm;更优选地,L可以不大于9mm;更优选地,L可以不大于8mm;更优选地,L可以不大于7mm;更优选地,L可以不大于6mm;更优选地,L可以不大于5mm;更优选地,L可以不大于4mm;更优选地,L可以不大于3mm;更优选地,L可以不大于2mm;更优选地,L可以不大于1mm;更优选地,L可以等于0。当L可以等于0时,各组双点声源中的近耳点声源可以合并成一个导声孔,其可作为主导声孔将声音传播给使用者的耳孔。例如,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3可以合并成一个导声孔(如图41中的导声孔3842-5)。在一些实施例中,至少一个导声孔的至少一部分结构可朝向使用者的耳朵。这样,从该导声孔传出的声音能够向着使用者耳孔传播(如图41所示)。
在一些实施例中,导声孔的形状可以包括但不限于条形、圆形、椭圆形、方形、梯形、圆角四边形、三角形、不规则图形等中的一种或其任意组合。在一些实施例中,各个导声孔的形状可以相同或不同。例如,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3的形状可呈圆形,第二导声孔3842-2和第四导声孔3842-4的形状可呈椭圆形。又例如,第一导声孔3842-1的形状可呈条形,第二导声孔3842-2的形状可呈椭圆形,第三导声孔3842-3的形状可呈圆形,而第四导声孔3842-4的形状可呈三角形。再例如,第一导声孔3842-1、第二导声孔3842-2、第三导声孔3842-3以及第四导声孔3842-4的形状均可呈条形。
在一些实施例中,不同扬声器单元对应的导声孔孔径或大小可以相同或不同。在一些实施例中,各个导声孔的大小不同时可能会使得相应的听音和/或漏音的音量也不同。在一些实施例中,通过设置近远孔径比(即,近耳点导声孔的孔径大小与远耳点导声孔的孔径的大小的比值),双点声源可获得更强的降漏音能力。在一些实施例中,双点声源对应的分频信号频段越高,其近远孔径比可以越小。也就是说,随着双点声源对应的分频信号频段变高,近耳点声源的孔径与远耳点声源的孔径可以逐渐趋于相同。例如,对应低频信号的双点声源,近耳点声源孔径可设置为大于远耳点声源孔径;对应高频信号的双点声源,近耳点声源孔径可设置为与远耳点声源孔径相同或相近。
在一些实施例中,对应于低频信号的双点声源,近远孔径比可以不小于1;可选地,近远孔径比可以不小于5;更优选地,近远孔径比可以不小于10;更优选地,近远孔径比可以不小于15;更优选地,近远孔径比可以不小于20;更优选地,近远孔径比可以不小于25;更优选地,近远孔径比可以不小于30;

在一些实施例中,通过调节不同的导声孔的位置,可以使使用者获得的不同的听音效果。关于导声孔位置与听音位置的更多描述可以参见本说明书其他地方(如图28及其相关描述)。在一些实施例中,为了保证用户有较好的听音效果,当用户佩戴开放双耳式耳机3800时,每组双点声源的近耳点声源的中心点与用户耳孔4210的中心点之间的距离D n可以不大于10cm;优选地,距离D n可以不大于9cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于8cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于7cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于6cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于5cm;更优选 地,距离D n可以不大于4cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于3cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于2.5cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于2cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于1.5cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于1cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于0.5cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于0.4cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于0.3cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于0.2cm;更优选地,距离D n可以不大于0.1cm。
在一些实施例中,开放双耳式耳机4200可以包括一个低频扬声器单元和一个高频扬声器单元,低频扬声器单元对应的近耳导声孔可以与高频扬声器单元的对应的近耳导声孔合并成一个导声孔。例如,如图41所示,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3可以合并成导声孔3842-5。在一些实施例中,导声孔3842-5的一端可以设置在端面3812上,导声孔3842-5的另一端可以设置在端面3814上。这样设置可以使用户佩戴开放双耳式耳机3800时,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3(即,近耳点声源)朝向用户耳孔,使用户听到的声音(即,听音)音量更高。在一些实施例中,第二导声孔3842-2可以设置在端面3812上。第四导声孔3842-4可设置在端面3816上。在一些实施例中,第一导声孔3842-1、第二导声孔3842-2、第三导声孔3842-3和第四导声孔3842-4都可以设置在端面3812(或端面3816)上。在一些实施例中,第三导声孔3842-3可以设置在端面3812上和第四导声孔3842-4可以设置在端面3812的对立面。在一些实施例中,如图38所示,第一导声孔3842-1和第二导声孔3842-2可以设置在壳体3810的前端的任何部位(例如端面3812、端面3814或端面3816),第三导声孔3842-3和第四导声孔3842-4可以设置在壳体3810的后端任何部位。在一些实施例中,第一导声孔3842-1和第三导声孔3842-3可以设置在壳体3810的前端,第二导声孔3842-2和第四导声孔3842-4可以设置在壳体3810的后端。在一些实施例中,当用户佩戴开放双耳式耳机4200时,导声孔3842-5的中心点与最近一侧的耳孔中心点的距离D可以不大于10cm;优选地,距离D可以不大于9cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于8cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于7cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于6cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于5cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于4cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于3cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于2.5cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于2cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于1.5cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于1cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于0.5cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于0.4cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于0.3cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于0.2cm;更优选地,距离D可以不大于0.1cm。
在一些实施例中,可以在双点声源之间设置挡板结构,在远场漏音音量不显著增加的情况下,显著提升近场听音位置的音量,从而提升用户的听音效果。关于双点声源中设置挡板来提升听音效果的更多内容可以参见本说明书其他地方(如图11至图34及其相关描述)。在一些实施例中,低频段的双点声源可以包括一个设置于近耳点的导声孔,与其对应的远耳点导声孔可以设置在壳体3810的后端。这样设置可以使用户佩戴开放双耳式耳机3800时,近耳点声源和远耳点声源之间相隔用户耳朵轮廓。此时,耳朵轮廓可以起到挡板的作用,显著提升近场听音位置的音量,从而提升用户的听音效果。
在一些实施例中,由于导声管内媒质的内摩擦力或粘滞力可以对声传播造成较大影响,因此导声管的管径不能过小,否则容易导致声音产生过多损失,减小输出音量。然而,当导声管管径过大时,若传递的声音大于某一频率,管内会产生高次波。因此为了使导声管在所要传递的声音范围内不产生高次波,而只存在沿管方向传播的平面波,可以合理设置导声管半径。在一些实施例中,导声管半径可以为0.5mm-10mm;优选地,导声管半径可以为0.5mm-9mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为0.7mm-8mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为0.9mm-7.5mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为1mm-7mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为1.5mm-6.5mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为2mm-6mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为2.5mm-5.5mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为3mm-5mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为3.5mm-4.5mm;更优选地,导声管半径可以为3.7mm-4.2mm。
在一些实施例中,导声管与管口(即,导声孔)辐射阻抗能够相互作用,使得特定频率的声音在管中形成驻波,从而导致输出的声音会在某些频率上形成峰/谷,影响声音输出效果。导声管长度越长,产生峰/谷的频率越低,峰/谷的数量越多。优选地,导声管长度不大于300mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于250mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于200mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于150mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于100mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于50mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于30mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于20mm;更优选地,导声管长度不大于10mm。在一些实施例中,可以在导声孔处设置阻抗匹配层以减小峰/谷的影响。
在一些实施例中,导声管的长径比(即,长度比直径)也会对其内部的声音产生影响,其具有低通滤波的效果,同时也具有阻尼的效果,最终会导致音量变小,高频音量较低频的削弱更大。为了保证声音衰减不至于过大而影响听音。优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于200;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于180;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于160;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于150;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于130;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于110;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于80;更优选地,导声管长径比可以不大于50;更优选地,导管长径比可以不大于30;更优选地,导管长径比可以不大于10。
在一些实施例中,各个导声管的参数(例如,长度、半径、长径比等)可以相同或不同。例如,第一导声管3840-1的长度可以为5mm,第二导声管3840-2的长度可以为30mm。又例如,第一导声管3840-1和第三导声管3840-3的长度可以均为5mm。
在一些实施例中,由于各点声源对应的分频信号的相位不同,听音及漏音的音量也可以不同,因此可以通过调节各点声源的相位来实现不同的输出效果。在一些实施例中,为了减小开放双耳式耳机3800的远场漏音,可以使得声学驱动器3830-1分别在第一导声孔3842-1和第二导声孔3842-2处产生幅值相等(或近似相等)、相位相反(或近似相反)的低频声音,以及使得声学驱动器3830-2分别在第三导声孔3842-3和第四导声孔3842-4处产生幅值相等(或近似相等)、相位相反(或近似相反)的高频声音。在一些实施例中,对应双点声源中的分频信号的频段越高,其相位差可以越大。例如,在通过设置两个扬声器单元构成的双点声源中,对于对应低频信号的双点声源,可以调节从两个点声源传出的低频信号的相位差等于或近似等于0°;对于对应高频信号的双点声源,可以调节从两个点声源传出的高频信号的相位差等于或近似等于180°。在一些实施例中,可以通过调节双点声源的相位,使双点声源到达近场听音位置(或耳孔中心点)处的相位差等于或近似等于0°,同时使双点声源到达远场处的相位差等于或近似等于180°。在一些实施例中,双点声源的相位差可以等于5°、10°、20°、50°、70°、90°、100°、120°、130°、150°、170°、175°、180°等,或其组合。
电路板3860可用于集成各种元器件,从而实现各种功能。例如,电路板上可以集成有分频处理单元,实现对音频信号的分频处理。再例如,电路板上可以集成有信号处理单元,来调节音频信号的相位、振幅等。蓝牙模块3870可用于使开放双耳式耳机3800与外部设备进行通信。例如,开放双耳式耳机3800与外部音响设备可以通过蓝牙模块3870进行通信。在一些实施例中,蓝牙模块3870可以集成在电路板3860上。电源模块3880可用于为开放双耳式耳机3800的各个部件提供电能。在一些实施例中,电源模块3880可以包括蓄电池、干电池、锂电池、丹聂耳电池、燃料电池等。开放双耳式耳机3800的电路板3860、蓝牙模块3870、电源模块3880等其他结构可参考现有技术中常规耳机的设置,此处不再赘述。
应当注意以上对开放双耳式耳机3800的描述旨在说明,而不是限制本申请的范围。许多替代、修改和变化对于本领域普通技术人员来说是显而易见的。本文描述的示例性实施例的特征、结构、方法和其他特征可以以各种方式组合以获得附加和/或替代示例性实施例。例如,开放双耳式耳机3800可以包括一个或以上附加组件。附加地或替代地,可以省略上述开放双耳式耳机3800的一个或以上组件。例如,可以在开放双耳式耳机3800中增加反馈麦克风。反馈麦克风可以用于降低残余噪声(例如,电路电流噪声)。又例如,隔板3850可以省略。再例如,壳体3810上 可以设置有一个或多个按键(例如,音量增加键、音量减小键、开关机键、蓝牙切换键等)。再例如,开放双耳式耳机3800可以通过蓝牙模块3870与用户终端连接。用户终端可以显示控制界面,用户可以通过控制界面发出控制指令,例如,增大/减小音量等,控制信号可以被蓝牙模块3870接收并进一步实现对耳机的控制。在一些实施例中,蓝牙模块3870可以省略。开放双耳式耳机3800可以通过数据线与外部设备进行通信。
图42A示出了根据本申请的一些实施例的第一扬声器单元3830-1的示例性频率响应4210和第二扬声器单元3830-2的示例性频率响应4220。图42B示出了根据本申请的一些实施例的第一扬声器单元3830-1的示例性频率响应4210和第二扬声器单元3830-2的另一示例性频率响应4230。第一扬声器单元3830-1可以被配置为处理音频信号以生成第一分频信号。第二带扬声器单元3830-2可以被配置为处理音频信号以生成第二分频信号。在分频信号中,第二分频信号可以与第一分频信号在频域中相邻。
在一些实施例中,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应可以具有相同的频率带宽。例如,如图42A所示,第一扬声器单元3830-1的频率响应4210具有低半功率点f1,高半功率点f2和中心频率f3。如这里所使用的,某个频率响应的半功率点可以指具有特定功率抑制(例如,-3dB)的频率点。频率响应4210的频率带宽可以等于f2与f1之间的差。第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应4220具有低半功率点f2,高半功率点f4和中心频率f5。频率响应4220的频率带宽可以等于f4与f2之间的差。第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率带宽可以彼此相等。
在一些实施例中,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应可以具有不同的频率带宽。例如,如图42B所示,第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应4230具有低半功率点f2,高半功率点f7(大于f4)和中心频率f6。第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应4230的频率带宽可以等于f7与f2之间的差,该差值可以大于第一扬声器单元3830-1的频率响应4210的频率带宽。
在一些实施例中,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应可以在特定频率点相交。频率响应的相交点可以导致第一和第二频率响应之间出现一定的重叠范围。在理想情况下,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应之间可能没有重叠范围。然而,实际上,可能存在一定的重叠范围,这可能导致第一分频信号和第二分频信号之间出现干扰范围,并影响第一分频信号和第二分频信号的质量。例如,重叠范围越大,干扰范围可能越大,并且第一和第二分频信号的质量可能越低。
在一些实施例中,第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应相交的特定频率点可以接近第一扬声器单元3830-1的频率响应的半功率点和/或第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应的半功率点。以图42A为例,频率响应4210和频率响应4220在频率响应4210的高半功率点f2处相交,该相交点也是频率响应4220的低半功率点。如这里所使用的,如果频率点和半功率点之间的功率电平差不大于阈值(例如,2dB),则可以认为频率点接近半功率点。在这种情况下,在第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应中可能存在较少的能量损失或重复,这可能导致第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应之间出现适当重叠范围。例如,当半功率点为-3dB,阈值为-2dB时,若频率响应在大于-5dB和/或小于-1dB的功率电平的频率点相交时,可以认为重叠范围相对较小。在一些实施例中,可以调整第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应的中心频率和/或带宽,来获得第一扬声器单元3830-1和第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应之间的更窄或适当的重叠范围,以避免第一和第二分频信号的频带之间的重叠。
图42A和42B中所示的应当注意示例旨在说明,而不是限制本申请的范围。对于本领域的普通技术人员,可以在本申请的教导下进行多次变化与修改。然而,这些变化和修改不会背离本申请的范围。例如,第一扬声器单元3830-1和/或第二扬声器单元3830-2的频率响应的一个或 以上参数(例如,频率带宽、高半功率点、低半功率点和/或中心频率)可以改变。
图43是根据本申请一些实施例所示的示例性开放双耳式耳机的示意图。如图43所示,开放双耳式耳机4300可以称为头箍式耳机。所述开放双耳式耳机4300可以与所述开放双耳式耳机3800具有类似的配置。例如,所述开放双耳式耳机4300可以包括壳体4310、麦克风、声学驱动器(如扬声器单元)、与声学驱动器对应的导声管、隔板、电路板、蓝牙模块以及电源模块等。在所述壳体4310上可以设置有与声学驱动器对应的第一导声孔4320-1、第二导声孔4320-2、第三导声孔4320-3以及第四导声孔4320-4。如图43所示,开放双耳式耳机4300的第一导声孔4320-1和第二导声孔4320-2对应低频扬声器单元;第三导声孔4320-3和第四导声孔4320-4对应高频扬声器单元。在一些实施例中,第一导声孔4320-1可以设置在端面4314上;第二导声孔4320-2可以设置在端面4312上,且位于壳体4310的顶部;第三导声孔4320-3和第四导声孔4320-4可以均设置在端面4312上,且位于壳体4310的左端和/或右端的中部。更多关于开放双耳式耳机4300的描述,可以结合开放双耳式耳机3800和/或开放双耳式耳机4200的描述,此处不再赘述。例如,当用户佩戴开放双耳式耳机4300时,第一导声孔4320-1的中心点与最近一侧的用户耳孔中心点之间的距离可以和开放双耳式耳机4200中导声孔3842-5的中心点与最近一侧的用户耳孔中心点之间的距离相同。再例如,开放双耳式耳机4300中第一导声孔4320-1、第二导声孔4320-2、第三导声孔4320-3以及第四导声孔4320-4的形状和大小可以分别与开放双耳式耳机3800中第一导声孔3842-1、第二导声孔3842-2、第三导声孔3842-3以及第四导声孔3842-4相同。
需要说明的是,本申请主要以耳挂式耳机为例对本申请所披露的开放双耳式耳机进行了解释,但不应限定本发明在其他开放双耳式耳机中的使用范围。本申请所披露的开放双耳式耳机中声学驱动器、导声管、导声孔的位置也仅为示例,而不是限制本申请的范围。许多替代、修改和变化对于本领域普通技术人员来说是显而易见的。本文描述的示例性实施例的特征,结构,方法和其他特征可以以各种方式组合以获得附加和/或替代示例性实施例。例如,开放双耳式耳机3800可以包括三个扬声器单元,三个扬声器单元分别对应低、中、高三个频段的语音信号(即,低、中、高频扬声器单元)。低频扬声器单元及与其对应的导声管和导声孔可以均位于壳体前端,中频扬声器单元及与其对应的导声管和导声孔可以均位于壳体中部,高频扬声器单元及与其对应的导声管和导声孔可以均位于壳体后端。又例如,低、中、高频扬声器单元可以设置在壳体后端,而通过与其分别对应的导声管使各个导声孔均位于壳体的前端。再例如,开放双耳式耳机4300中的高频/低频扬声器单元可以对应四个导声管及导声孔。所述四个导声孔可以两两分别设置在壳体4310左右两侧作为用户左右耳的低频双点声源。
本申请实施例可能带来的有益效果包括但不限于:(1)实现耳机与耳孔的开放式耦合,避免了使用者长期佩戴耳机而造成的耳朵听力下降、存在安全隐患等问题;(2)通过设置高频双点声源和低频双点声源实现不同频段下的声音输出,具有更好的声音输出效果;(3)通过设置不同间距的双点声源,使得开放双耳式耳机在更高的频段有更强的降漏音能力的效果。需要说明的是,不同实施例可能产生的有益效果不同,在不同的实施例里,可能产生的有益效果可以是以上任意一种或几种的组合,也可以是其他任何可能获得的有益效果。
上文已对基本概念做了描述,显然,对于本领域技术人员来说,上述发明披露仅仅作为示例,而并不构成对本申请的限定。虽然此处并没有明确说明,本领域技术人员可能会对本申请进行各种修改、改进和修正。该类修改、改进和修正在本申请中被建议,所以该类修改、改进、修正仍属于本申请示范实施例的精神和范围。
同时,本申请使用了特定词语来描述本申请的实施例。如“一个实施例”、“一实施例”和/或“一些实施例”意指与本申请至少一个实施例相关的某一特征、结构或特点。因此,应强调并注意的是,本说明书中在不同位置两次或多次提及的“一实施例”或“一个实施例”或“一替代性实施例”并不一定是指同一实施例。此外,本申请的一个或多个实施例中的某些特 征、结构或特点可以进行适当的组合。
此外,本领域技术人员可以理解,本申请的各方面可以通过若干具有可专利性的种类或情况进行说明和描述,包括任何新的和有用的工序、机器、产品或物质的组合或对他们的任何新的和有用的改进。相应地,本申请的各个方面可以完全由硬件执行、可以完全由软件(包括固件、常驻软件、微码等)执行、也可以由硬件和软件组合执行。以上硬件或软件均可被称为“数据块”、“模块”、“引擎”、“单元”、“组件”或“系统”。此外,本申请的各方面可能表现为位于一个或多个计算机可读介质中的计算机产品,该产品包括计算机可读程序编码。
此外,除非权利要求中明确说明,本申请处理元素和序列的顺序、数字字母的使用或其他名称的使用,并非用于限定本申请流程和方法的顺序。尽管上述披露中通过各种示例讨论了一些目前认为有用的发明实施例,但应当理解的是,该类细节仅起到说明的目的,附加的权利要求并不仅限于披露的实施例,相反,权利要求旨在覆盖所有符合本申请实施例实质和范围的修正和等价组合。例如,虽然以上所描述的系统组件可以通过硬件设备实现,但是也可以只通过软件的解决方案得以实现,如在现有的服务器或移动设备上安装所描述的系统。
